The fluffballs headed down the slope

Toward the mud

But they didn’t have rubber boots

But they stomped through the mud anyway

And stood around looking unimpressed

With their noses turned up, like they were too sophisticated for mud.

The one in the fur-lined tuxedo ran away

And the fluffiest fluffball went to tattle on him.

The one in the fur-line tuxedo looked left

And looked right.

And asked a grownup where fluffy had gone.

But he wasn’t down in the mud anymore

He was waddling up in the grass.
