amazing tortuga
what goes through your mind
going on about your business
and then humans invade the waters you swim
are you terrified
accustomed now
or curious
do you even care
have shell, will travel
you look so comfortable
warm coastal waters await your arrival
i wish i were you

The turtle is a fascinating animal and your poem does it justice! Lovely!!

I love the playful yet thoughtful tone of this, Susi. The idea of being a turtle, drifting through life without a care, is so freeing. Beautifully written!
Much love,
David
