TURTLE & TORTOISE ~ An Acrostic 6 8 Sonnet

 

WATCH THE VIDEO ON THE GIANT TORTOISE ! 

TURTLES BASKING ON A LOG !

 

TURTLES are very funny animals

USUALLY sunning on a log or rock 

REALLY cute a long line of @@@@@

TURTLES Babies to Granddads ~ Turtle Flock !

LOVELY in Status ~ Size & Order

EXCEPTIONAL Swimmers in the water !

 

TORTOISES are quite different

ONLY happy on land ~ they be

REALLY ponderous ~ slow & shy

THEY retreat into SHELL and never play with ME !

ONLY make good pets for GERIATRICS

I ONLY had a Tortoise once ~ not planned

SHE was in\'erited from my Uncle .......

ERIC who died with ESMERALDA in \'is \'and !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN XOX

 

Have you ever had a TURTLE or a TORTOISE (which can 

live for 300 years !) as a pet ? Please tell me about it !

TORTOISES are good pets for Busy People ~ they make

no demands and sleep all WINTER !  My Grandma\'s like

that her shell is her padded housecoat ! She lives with

My Parents and she is my Dad\'s  MA - IN - LAW !  ~ He

calls her TILLY the TORTOISE and predicts She will live

for another 200 years !  But we all love Her ~ BRIAN XOX
