Description
" Ode to the Sea Turtle"
You are born on distant beaches,
There's a lot you can teach us.
You can grow to be 600 pounds,
Your grace in the water astounds!
Loggerheads, Hawksbill,Riley, Leather back, and Green,
You,re all endangered and rarely seen.
A female turtle returns to the same nesting site,
Laying hundreds of eggs in the middle of the night.
Baby turtles follow the moon,artificial light can kill them too soon.
So many predaters eat turtles and their eggs,
They can't escape fast enough on their little legs.
Once the hatchlings reach the ocean, their job is not done,
They must avoid nets and pollution...which can't be fun.
Swimming and swimming night and day,
Covering hundreds of miles without delay.
Heed this warning, for we make it clear,
Help protect the sea turtles, or we will lose something dear.
