Fertile Turtle Named Myrtle

head was potato
now a member of nato
cats with tomato
(catsup) 

hurrah we just won
the greater glory of God
were Peter's peacocks

an operation
which had been called by putin
special military

will catch a big bass
instead of cutting grass
think that we will pass

with comfort and care
plane took off into midair
with some room to spare

terrible turtle
had found her to be fertile
whose name was myrtle

willing and able
to get elbows off table
by both mike and mable
