……Sloping stealthily, Sally Snail slithers steadily across the shallow sill……
…….suddenly, a soaring screech shatters the silence……
……..stunned, Sally shudders to a sudden stop……
…..she suckers securely for safety…..
……scared, she shrinks speedily into her shiny shell……
…..stifling snivels and sobs silently in the shadows…….
….struck by shock and showered in sadness……
…..as she recalls Simon, her sibling snail….
……snatched, by a sneaky Swallow in the Summer sunshine…….
A purely fictional moment of mad mumbling s …..inspired by a simple snail!
No snails were harmed in the making of this post!
