Slosh Your Way Through Slush - #334

Students - yesterday I went for a walk with our dog Cali, just the two of us.  I had my boots, she had her paws, and we both had a lovely time tromping through the water and slush.  I got to wondering how I went for so many years without a proper pair of boots, and it was such fun to just slosh through it all.  Beginning tomorrow, this will be the way of March: snow, slush, rain, snow, slush, rain.  Beneath it all: tulips!

As I slurped down our road, I played with words, muttering "wet smash of slush" to myself over and over again.  Life feeds writing, and writing feeds life.

Joan Bransfield Graham's SPLISH SPLASH is filled to the brim with playful concrete poems about water.
