Slow Steady Snail



      
      RACE

Swift speedy stallion
Snubbed small snail’s slow pace
Said, “Slow slimy snail won’t steal a place in any race”
 Sleek snake said something similar-
“Snail so slow, snail slow snail won’t steal a nice place in any race!”
Although Snake is so smart and stallion is swift
For a first place
But in this race,
Small slow snail’s steady pace won the race!
When sleepy slimy slow snail stretched
Out of its shell,
Sleek smart snake skidded
Off a slippery slope,
Hasty speedy stallion
During the race
Sank with sinking sand,
Slow, steady snail small pace
Won the race!
Slow small snail
Smiled silently,
Said to sinking stallion
And sliding snake,
“My pace might be slow,
But a slow steady, pace
Will always win a race!”
