Little Snail

I saw a little snail
Come down the garden walk.
He wagged his head this way... that way...
Like a clown in a circus.
He looked from side to side
As though he were from a different country.
I have always said he carries his house on his back...
To-day in the rain
I saw that it was his umbrella!
