Definition: A mixture of water and soil or fine grained sediment.
Alright class, settle down now, letβs take a look!
Youβve got a great question today, itβs truly keen,
About the word βmud,β what does it mean? Let's convene!
The dictionary gave you a clue, quite clear and bright,
βA mixture of water and soil, with all its earthy might!β
Let's break that down for you, nice and slow,
Think about where mud likes to grow.
βSoilβ
is the ground beneath our feet,
Tiny bits of rock, a lovely treat!
And
βsediment,β
well, thatβs small and fine,
Like sand and silt, a texture divine!
Then add in
water
, flowing free,
Mixing it all up for you and me.
That's what makes mud, a sticky hue,
A blend of earth and water, fresh and new!
Does that make sense to everyone here? Any questions? Donβt be shy, letβs hear!
