In ancient seas, they glide with grace,
Through waves and tides, they find their place.
With shells so strong and hearts so pure,
Their timeless voyage will endure.

The moonlight guides them on the shore,
As they return to birth once more.
Beneath the stars, they lay their eggs,
A dance of life on sandy dregs.

Through ocean’s deep and coral’s maze,
They wander freely, lost in haze.
In silence, wisdom they impart,
To human soul and beating heart.

Oh turtle, ancient, wise, and free,
Your journey’s tale, a mystery.
With every stroke, you teach us well,
In ocean’s depth, where secrets dwell.
