Walking in Mud ~ (For Malinie)
You’re walking in mud
Like you’re planting rice
While others carefully
Save their feet for dry land
A farmer’s child
Daughter from the country
Enjoying the feeling
Of slipping mud
Between your toes
Why else
Would you smile like that
Grounded in the soil
Of Mother Earth?
