Caribbean Snail

Ah, you painted the snail! I said, in an ignorant way.
No, she replied. She was born like that in the Caribbean.
But I am not used to snails from anywhere other than Canada Bay.
So I think maybe you are fibb-E-in.

Great work Caren. Snails are usually unappreciated. Great poem.

Thank you. I am getting sick of thinking about the pandemic which has pretty much ruined school for us.
