I guess my name is "tortoise".

I guess my name is "tortoise".

A Poem by Jon Roggie

After a stunning response,

     "Thanks, Princess!",

I had to choose.

Not only a name,
    but a name of a creature in a beautiful garden.

One,
  a pixie, or a flutterby could outrace.

Why not?

~ dear infinitely poetic tortoise, you'd be amazed to know that i was nicknamed "slowly" in college... after a friend's pet tortoise... because i used to be the last person to find out gossip... :P ~ and... than i named my soul-mate random (the tortoise)... because "random and slowly"... seemed like an interesting couple... :P
