Yes, now this is a good contest piece. These things live forever it seems. In Louisiana zoo, some are hundred years old so I have been told. Best to you.

Awesome poem for the 2-4-2 contest. Yes, your title perfectly matches the turtle, "ageless". They are survivors, and your last line "sea soul" is perfect to describe the timeless animal.
Very well done.
Amy

being an animal lover, especially the ocean variety, I couldn't let this one pass me up, and you know I do like it, the picture accentuates it nicely, thank you

Ya know - for a mere 6 words you deliver a punch :-)
(and even managed to include a haiku-like kiru phrase)

turtle
time forgot not


true enough. . . millions of species have gone extinct, but time chose to spare the evolutionary line of the sea turtle (going back to the Late Jurassic at least 110 million years ago)

time forgot not
sea soul


a captivating idea. . . the turtle as the soul of the sea :-)

For a 2-4-2, nice poetry :-)

(5 stars) = EXCELLENT. I would recommend this to a friend! I enjoyed the read and found both the content and the construction admirably accomplished.

Oooh what a clever little short form you've presented here. I agree you've really discovered some sea-soul balm. The turtle is such a majestic creature, so slow, yet as graceful as a swan underwater when he swims...nice to know that when you get cursed with being one of the slowest land mammals, your blessed with one of the best mobile retreats when you've done all that damned walking up the beach to lay your eggs. That's GOTTA do something for your stress levels and make it much easier to live a lot longer...also, no one has a HOPE of cracking through that thick shell style epiderm too, me thinks.
Anyway, top show, LOVED this modern day dinosaur with a husk.
Cheers P

That's sweet. Hopefully turtles will be with us for another sixty million years. I like the last line. Those old turtles are indeed sea souls. This one really deserved to win.
