Down by the water’s edge
on the wet beach
in the space between the
tides
tiny little roads for one
furrowed rows
meandering to the sea
of the snails cast by the
surf
up onto the beach
purposely fighting
to push their way
back into the water
for dear life
Struggling but persevering
because they must
