Snails

by Ruby Earp aged 10

Snails are slow and have their pace,
Their fragile little shell covers their face,
All of that effort to get under a tree,
Is not as easy as you think it could be!

Snails have a long trail of slime,
All that goo took a lot of time,
It’s hard to see from up above,
Especially from an angelic dove.

Snails are small and are different,
Personally, I think they’re quite magnificent,
Being unnoticed isn’t always the best,
Having being chased can be quite the test.

Snails are incredible in what they achieve,
All this time we’ve stopped them to succeed,
Be nice to to harmless snails,
Hopefully then they’ll have less fails!
