The Turtle

The turtle lives 'twixt platted decks
That practically conceal it's sex.
I think it clever of the turtle,
In such a fix to be so fertile!

_______Ogden Nash


The Turtle (2)

The turtle moves at a sluggish pace.
Carrying himself inside a case.
From which stick out feet, tail and face,
And yet he always wins the race!

________Camille Saint-Saens "Carnival of the Animals"

Yay!
I was afraid this was going to be some kind of terrible love poem to your turtle or something. I'm so glad it's not.

I love my turtle but not in that way! I've known these two very funny turtle poems for a long time - before I ever got Spotty. Aren't they cute?
