TORTOISE SHELL
Patterned tiles
In pastel colours
spiral inward
spiral outward
see it, feel it
look at it
follow it
How ever you like it.
step upon to the tiles
of the Tortoise Shell
Tortoise Shell
Tortoise Shell
Step upon the tiles
of the Tortoise Shell
stately colours,
shapely sizes as well.
hexagons, octogons,
septagons, paragons
stately colours
to smoothe the phyche.
Now slide down
you are on the roof
slide down to the ground
where you once fell
and you will see
the house that holds the shell
And the scaley flesh that is tucked in well
Tortoise Shell
Tortoise Shell
Tortoise Shell
Tortoise Shell
Knuck on the door and
he is tucked in well
see the resident
hiding in his shell
under the patterns
where he so dwell
Tortoise Shell
Tortoise Shell
Tortoise Shell
Tortoise Shell
Under the pattern
where he so dwell.
step on the tiles
of a Tortoise Shell.
