little snail, where are you going?
do you want me to come with?
little snail, you’re so steady
you’ll get there at your own pace
little snail, your shell is hard
but I’ll still pick you up tenderly
bonus accompaniment poem:
Pablo the snail goes up the wall
he moves up with all his determination
but human child sets him on the ground
