May be an illustration of tortoise, turtle and text

Note: Tortoises are  land-dwelling while turtles are aquatic 

She sat on the back of a turtle 
then said 
 " Go Go Go !" 
While he 
on stumpy feet 
       trumbled
and humphed 
"you are mighty hefty !" 
he configured. 
She guided him to the water 
then said 
"Go Go Go" 
I know 
you want to 
what is stopping you?
 
"You've mistaken me 
for a tortoise little girl ! "
She turns around and 
leads him to land,  
and together they sit 
in the sand...
