A Garden Snail
Submitted by Diarmuid on January 20th, 2026
'It were a usual day, nothin' out of the ordinary were happenin'. Beannaithe were helpin' her grandfather the farmer with his garden when inspiration struck her. Beannaithe saw a snail. It were an ordinary garden variety snail. Rather than immediately chuckin' the snail in a bucket as she'd always done before, Beannaithe paused to consider the beauty of the snail's shell, its swirlin' shapes, and how it protected the slimy creature within.'
