Never thought of a snails journey to find food before, what a tedious chore. A really good Haiku Victor... Belle

At least he keeps on tugging. LOL..I think he will eat his way up the hill, arrive late and decide to go back down. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

Now they've captured that very poignant moment in time, and I love the scenery; I hope this will be a top winner. Have a great day, dear friend.
