I saw them- <br />two little turtles holding hands <br />standing heads up above a dark stone; <br />One was slightly above the other, <br />clutching his lover's hand. <br />I went near them and stared as the <br />one below hid her face from me. <br />Sweet as they seem, I wondered <br />if ever they, in their graceful moves <br />feel the heat of the passion built. <br />The passion of touching one another- <br />of just even being close to each other. <br />I wish you'd see them too... <br />two little turtles holding hands. <br />I looked up at the sky waving at me <br />as though he saw the loneliness in my eyes. <br />And then i wondered where you are <br />and when can i hold your hand, <br />or when can i just be with you; <br />when can we be together <br />like the two little turtles <br />sweetly holding hands.<br /><br />Jessel Jane Tevar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/two-little-turtles/
