There’s a turtle sitting on my desk,
He staring right at me!
He makes me start to wonder,
Of a life that is carefree.
My little turtle is not real,
He’s made of stone you see.
But he reminds me of the ocean,
And of life there being free.
To race the waves without care,
To play beneath the kelp.
Prey and predator have a place,
They really need no help.
If only we could understand,
The synchronicity of life.
Then perhaps we’d have a chance,
To mend our world of strife.
To live in peace would be the dream.
When all would be as one.
Reach your hand out to another,
And then my work is done.
There’s a turtle sitting on my desk,
He staring right at me!
I think he likes what I have said,
I’m sure he does agree.
He’s a lovely chap Pam, crafted with that freedom I think. Great poem dear lady 😀

I thought it was made of pastry as it did look like a pastry in the shape of the turtle. Did not look hard like made of stone! LOL! I must be hungry. Lovely piece of an ornament of turtle.
