The Snail Sessions
A series of haikus that all go together to form a haiku voltron of sorts
Sticky snails are much
cuter than their east-coast friends
the slugs. UGH! gross slugs.
When it rains they play
on the steps outside the house
then they get stranded
Hey, Joe! Help me, please
we need to rescue these snails
before they dry out.
They’re startled at first
plus they’re dehydrated and
can’t think too clearly
but once they see that
we are helping them survive
they relax and smile
Snails love Joe and me
because we take care of them
Let’s all hold hands now.
