Comment from Jim Wile
What a sweet sonnet about this unassuming little snail whose life may not have been particularly significant to anyone but himself, and he probably won't be mourned or missed in passing, but it's meaningful to the flower who is now anchored within him. You never can tell how your life and death will affect others.

This is an adorable Sonnet for the humble snail. I love his portable house and now converted garden. How could a person do any better?
Sending you my best today as always, and my very best wishes for the upcoming contest.

An enjoyable read and well written. Smooth rhyme and flows rhythmically as one reads in an undertone. The story has depth indicative that no matter how small or seemingly insignificant still contributes and is remembered for the share.

Thank you so much for this insightful review!
Comment from Alexandra Trovato
I wasn't sure if this really happens, but the thought of this happening, and the image, are beautiful. My first "pet" was a snail because my dad didn't want dogs or cats for many years. lol True story.
This excellent work. The irony of a close up snail bringing beauty and life is powerful. Your presentation is very good. You use expressive words and colorful imagery that will draw in readers. I enjoyed reviewing this.
Best wishes,
Alex

I am a fan of sonnets, and this contest entry did not disappoint. I am always wondered how plants have been able to find homes in the strangest places, but they do. It goes perfectly with one of my favorite sayings, 'Grow where you're planted. Good luck with the contest.

How incredible is that? And in one sense forever immortalised in the house of another, and although I live within our own shell, one day we will vacate it and it will return from whence it came. Well done, a good job with your Sonnet, good luck, blessings Roy

Hi Jessica. This is a well written piece of poetry in sonnet style in which you describe the wonderful snail. I love the image of a daisy growing out of the snail's shell. Life after death. Wonderful. Good luck.
