The Turtle and the Rabbit

I wish that I could be the turtle;

Running in the race.

For though the bunny’s very fast;

I set a steady pace.

 

He starts off with leaps and hops;

When we first begin.

But he’ll soon rest, then I’ll pass by,

And in the end I’ll win!

I was inspired to write this simple, short poem by the story of the Turtle and the Hair.
