The Tortoise

And it wondered while in wandered,
As it left the badger's hole towards the distant yonder:

"Raised like a badger I was,
think like a badger I thus,
yet a place I have none,
in this hole I felt shunned."

Without any further say,
it crawled further away,
in the shadow of the day,
to live by the lonely bay.

Until its life finally decay.
