A Little Gardening

The primrose and the primula
Are really very simula
But out in Wales
The slugs and snails
Make both of them look grimula

Voracious eater
Courageously devours
Large quantities of
Oysters and snails
Drowning Them
Making no big deal of

Someone spotted sixty-seven silvery slimy slippery sluggish snails somehow silently swimming slightly side-ways successfully- Shenanigans


Premium Member The Snails Met In Secret

The snails met in secret
For their parents were political
Arguing about everything
That never matters to anyone at the moment of death

Escargot

Hors d'oeuvres boxed in shells
From the kitchen fishy smells….
Red wine sautéed snails

Most the things that mostly crawl

Mostly cost the most of all

Like crabs and snails and lobster claw

Pray the day that prices fall

Turian purple dye in ancient Rome
Afforded by rich wearing a dome.
Snails soaked in urine.
Ten days a cure’n.
Smelled by this incredible poem.

Premium Member Worms, Maybe Snails

      Maggots and worms, maybe snails

Quiggie Snarls

Quiggie Snarls were maritime snails
Tasted butter in mouth of Hales
He ate a bucketful
With his grandson Gudrool
Then kicked the bucket off the rails

Gluttony

Two garden snails met by the way,
and one of them had this to say;
“Last night I did manage,
to eat half a cabbage,
now I feel a mite ‘sluggish’ today”.

Premium Member Better with Wine

A possum of high degree
invited me
for snails and tea.

I would, of course, politely decline
to find another place to dine.
I like my snails with wine.

The Snails Day

Snails are slow always making tracks
sliding along with their shells on their backs.
Munching on plants as they crawl along
singing a happy song all day long.

Before You Kiss a Frog

The French all share an attitude
That everyone is in the mood
A fondness prevails
For edible snails 
Because they can't stomach fast  food!

Premium Member Pleasure-Seeking

   Tony snails and rusty nails
     can be found near giant whales

   As for candy stripes on blue-gray dolphins
     all those I know went miniature-golfin'

Slow Menu

French cuisine for some see it crude.
Eating snails appear horribly lewd,
but well known in France,
its folk took a stance,
as the French cannot stand fast food.
Form: Limerick

Cuisine

For an exotic meal I pursued,
Not expecting one that did include,
Some baked tortoise tails
Amongst a plate of snails...
But I think I’ll just stick to fast food.

Conical shelled snails, succulent food of the gods, best when eaten live, inches on sides of boulders facing pounding ocean waves. Date: 08/25/2019

Premium Member A Few Monoku

Just wondering if snails ever think of leaving home.

Snails take carrying a mortgage to a new level.

Has anyone ever seen a homeless snail?

pan sizzle.. open air
add peppers.. garlic.. snails.. beware

lemon squeeze on rice.. no froth
lots of beans.. hare if you wish
Aha Paella.. a tasty dish

Quest of Understanding

dear, when haven't you been on a quest for purity and quiet understanding, each morning i hear stories from the squirrels and snails of your tender voice soothing the dew drops and the sunbeams.

Snails

Somewhere
In our universe
There will always be
Gastropods:

Down-to-ground 
Intelligent lifeforms
Who feel
And think
That existence depends
On their
Very smart
Oh, so very smart
Tummies!
