A Turtle Winner

I am turtle, sage and wise; I may not be speedy but I surprise, with a gleam in my clever eye; I’ll always finish, I covet no prize. Great age has birthed enlightenment, perception, wisdom, and contentment; I need no awards, they’re irrelevant, with informed choices I stay content.
