Short of legs but not insight <br />Eyes awe bound <br />Belly earth borne, <br />Back home packed <br />Gait monastic <br /> <br />Native of no land, <br />Call led crawls, sense fed- <br />A bite here, a munch there <br />Bidding Time to slough out <br />Of this shell clad life.<br /><br />yoonoos peerbocus<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tortoise-2/
