Sea Turtle Poems - Poems about Sea Turtle


Gentle Wanderer
In tranquil depths, the sea turtle glides, Ancient traveler where the ocean hides. With a shell like armor, so strong and wise, She dances through currents, beneath the wide skies. A journey of miles, through coral and foam, In the heart of the sea, she finds her home. Graceful and patient,...

Premium Member Sea Turtle Point of View
Coral reefs are dangerous some entities say Not to me maybe because I know of no other way The corals are gorgeous, but can hurt your toes I swim through these reefs loving their glows. I am comfortable in these waters so deep Predators are about, but I know where to sleep. I love the beautiful waters of the South American...

Sea Turtle
Subtle beak peeks, blowing through a reef’s ostentatiousness Emerging from dark impervious depths, the need to breathe Adept adaptation caught between the blues and greens of aqua Turtle spins in shelly quagmire where the sea and land consort Ungainly gravity adheres, sands rasp of birth or death juju Raking flippers grasp a slow, staid, trek, back to the water Tortuous...

Snotty haughty sea turtle. Stuck up Barely speaking to other sea creatures Much ado about nothing Snotty haughty sea turtle Mean to others For decades Now trying to pretend you are not haughty? Snotty haughty sea turtle Waving now Pretending you have a heart Might as well go back into your shell. Snotty haughty sea turtle. Too late Too arrogant. Too you....

Those crusted, frothy shells demand their way toward the grasses as destiny calls. Barely an eye to see, eroded like a silver spoon, they plummet forward jerky as a scared...

My Green Sea Turtle
wonderful slick shell, Brown and golden, the color of a shell. That perfect shaped shell. The shell of my turtle i know too well. You are the greenest. The most bravest. And fastest (i think) And maybe the smartest too. You slick and slide, And glide on by, The water is what you love. And you swim in the water, like a dove in the sky. May...

Sea Turtle
Small, beautiful face stares up at me When did you become so exquisitely you (so entirely other than me)? I've spent my life consumed in myself You, the rock in the background of my sorrow (listening, understanding, comforting) The waves of my emotions and actions Rolling off you Leaving you the same (innocent, sweet, content). Lie. What a lie. Sailing through scenes of...
