Missing Turtle Poem by Bill Grace

Missing Turtle



The object on the road came up so fast
At first glance turtle seemed an armadillo
No room to swerve to left or right
I elected to run over it
With wheels to left and right
Preserving life - honoring Schweizer's creed
A different form of prayer perhaps
Than the mindfullness for my friend's daughter
Who was having her first baby
At the same time that I was missing turtles.
