A D I T L O a S
A Day In The Life Of A Snail.
Another day begins, the sun is shining as the Starling sings.
Dare I risk a slither across the lawn
as the Starling sings sings in the brisk of morn.
Yes I have seen the Owl up in the tree.
Is he looking! Gulp! Down at me.
Yes I've seen the eagle flying high in the sky looking for a meal
Oh please Mr Eagle I don't want to die understand sir how I feel.
On second thoughts I don't feel well I dare not risk a slither.
I think I'll stop here in my shell cause now I'm all a dither.
If you think a coward am I
and in my shell I fail.
Let me say I'm too young to die
I'm just a little snail.
