Eat your leafy greens.
Don't worry. Take it slow.
Go when it's time to go.
That's what a snail says,
and a snail should know.
Outside with my water pail
stands a guilty looking snail,
and a half-eaten poinsettia.
You know, dear snail,
I'm going to get ya.
i once knew a slimy snail
who had a great big fat tail
he had a mighty push
from his enormous tush
speeding down his gooey trail

I was clean shaven when I
spotted a snail going by
I watched for a while
as he went half a mile
now my beard's reaching down to my thigh
Consider the humble, brown snail
He's only a head and a tail
No fingers or toes
Yet, there it goes!
Just follow its shiny, bright trail.
a snail
on the move?
almost motionless...
to nowhere,
mocking time.

wintry desolate
an aquatic, white snail craws
betrayed by the lake

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2023©
How exultantly I hale
the grey wolf, the snowshoe hare,
and the ferocious grizzly bear.
I raise a glass of ale
to Coopers Rockymountain snail.
Trump has smeared our Snail Mail with slime
Insisting it is not a crime
Ballots need inspection
To win an election
And Biden may die with more time!
A gentleman opened his mail,
When out jumped a sprightly young snail.
"I'm glad to be out,"
He said with a shout,
"I thought I was in a white whale."
A snail makes his home inside a shell.
"My home", I say, "is a living hell".
A snail without a shell's a slug.
"I guess, my home's not so bad", I shrug.
Spirit guide from above,
reveal the ways of love.
Tell me, my guardian snail.
Son, don't ever worry
or be in a hurry -
know that true love will prevail.
snail climbing a hill
sees flourishing apple tree ...
will find it next year

“It’s a snail, crept up on
by a spider, mutating into a
porcupine, being eaten by a jellyfish!”
What a work of art!
I apologize, mere words cannot describe it!
Often.
Sometimes.
I retract.
I crawl.
Like the snail
softly back within
Those circuitous silent depths
of my hollow shell.
Sometimes
The light be too bright.
Snail's sticky tongue feet
climb gently the Taro leaves
make path clean and slick
The snail slowly slithered from the wet grass
Crossed the cracked concrete sidewalk
leaving a silky slimy slender trail of mucus
carrying a shatterable shell as its shield.
I shivered an amorous snail
climbing up intrepid a leg wall
light years ahead before I sleep
Each morning without fail,
I see my little,brown-shelled snail,
Plodding along with his home on his back,
Leaving a long, tiny, silver track,
I think he likes blazing a trail.
humid trail of life
over dry words and numbers -
snail on a tombstone

Snail Todd was to be married at noon.
He got lost, following the remnants of the moon.
I guess I could help out, a rabbit said to a baboon.
He gave him a lift, and got him there by noon.
Wait a minute.
Pay tribute to cinnamon snail
Eaten by hungry Tim before baking
Here lies Tim's mother as well
Who could not part herself with other half
rolled back to her son's inner chamber.
would sail with small snail
she seemed so foolish while frail
who left a long trail
blew up a big gail
without fail breath would smell stale
singing song to scale
entail
pale
prevail

Elderly snail man with a wrinkled body and face
You are aging out fast, without delicacy or grace
Your eyes are squinty now as if they are full of mace.
At least the old women in the complex no longer give chase.
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.
