Snail's pace

Nature is so incredibly beautiful


I spotted this snail in the raised bird bath
while dealing with the little bird 
 a few days ago.

It takes my breath away.

    'The velocity of the ill,
    however, is like that of the snail.'
    —Emily Dickinson, in a letter
    to Charles H. Clark, April 1886

    Quoted in Elisabeth Tova Bailey's 'The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating'. If you haven't read it, I'd recommend it. :)
