A Turtle Walking Through the Grass

A turtle walking through the grass Making each step with measured gait, Allowing time and doubt to pass, And taking time to pause and wait. Making each step with measured gait, A man takes time to reminisce. And taking time to pause and wait He might find something he would miss. A man takes time to reminisce. Allowing time and doubt to pass, He might find something he would miss: A turtle, walking through the grass! 6.6.21 Eve Roper's Pantoum Contest Photo 4

"Taking each step, pause and wait, time to reminisce" There is so much we can learn from a turtle. Your thoughts hold so much truth. This is beautiful and tender, all at the same time. I wish to place this in my favorites. Because. :) Brandy
