Just a bowl of salt
Sitting on the porch
Was a rainy day
Jenny's out to play
She was running 'round
When she tripped and found
A pretty garden snail
So small and frail
So she picked it it up
Walked up to the house
Gave it a fitting name
Covered it with grains
And she watched it burn
She was horrified
Mom couldn't stop her crying
Hey it's just a snail
Barely beyond the pale
It was to no avail
She felt life's gloomy veil
Draping her very soul
It had taken it's toll
Jenny prayed that day
To wash her sins away
She would let his word be true
Let his will go through
But this day would haunt her
'Till the end
