Home of the Tortoise (Haiku)
The load is heavy,
for one who carries his home
on his back, always

Tortoise and the Hare
If a turtle could.
He would walk faster- maybe.
Find some dynamite.

Slow-moving tortoise
Confused by its own shadow
On a rocky beach

Twelve Hours Half a Day--Cq
twelve hours half a day--CQ
night surrenders
saffron sky delves
import tortoise
export fledglings
sand crabs popout
penguins waddle
porpoises play
zenith star slips

Here To Your Old Age
I am a tortoise
an age not shared by many
of shells left behind
traipsed sand trails vanish
a lifeless beach that grows cold
my birthday alone
no surprise present
still the same longevity
toast wish they were here

The tortoise smiles long.'
