Three small snails
crawl down the street,
for twenty yards
so they can meet.

Three small snails
crawl through the grass,
and build up speed
to meet at last.

One small snail
decides to wait,
since all his friends
are three days late.

Two small snails,
one snail says "No",
ten yards down,
ten yards to go.

The last small snail
decides to sleep,
the last five yards
are far too steep.

Three small snails
give up at last,
and go their own ways
through the grass.
