~Associate not with birds~.

~Associate not with birds~.

We have a turtle named turd
He reminds me of Henry the third,

His shell is hard, a little rough
He walks with attitude
And thinks he tough,

Until a bird fly's by that is
then back into that shell of his
~Goes his little head,

Associate not with birds
He would say~
That's how you land up dead

Tucked inside his shell no see
The passing by, of birds before he,

Clever little turtle to be
The master of his destiny .
