A Hungry Snail Print

As autumn’s creatures come to play, 

with faerie friends through night and day, 

a napping faerie takes a risk, 

as hungry snails are rather brisk!

 

With eyes so long it begs belief, 

that faerie wings look like a leaf!

“Halt that feast my one foot friend, 

before you drive me round the bend!”

 

But snails are creatures born to munch.

A leaf, a mushroom…….tasty lunch!

The snail replied with hungry eyes

“I really thought I’d found a prize!”

 

“Well next time when you start to munch, 

Remember faeries aren’t your lunch!

We dwell beside you in this wood!

And if you bite, it’s salt for pud!”

 

Poem by me! Nikki.

 

If you’re a believer, then this is the perfect print for you, and it compliments many of my other faerie illustrations.  Each print contains a copy of the poem above!

If you’d like this poem included on the print itself, please let me know in the comments section at check out!
