Deep in the sea of ocean blue
A green turtle ponders through
A white strand sticks to him like glue
He swims to the top of the deep ocean blue
He warms on the sand like deep-fried stew
There he waits to bid adieu
Until a friendly foe sees him lying there
But they pursue to walk along the oceans shore
Leaving the turtle to ponder in despair
The turtle lays beside the shore
Awaiting his fate like those before him and more
