The baby sea turtle crawled alone along the ocean shore.
The waves rolled up with a gentle roar.
A beautiful girl scooped up the turtle in one hand.
She smiled and wiped away unwanted sand.
She walked along the shore, holding the turtle close.
Sea turtles were the animal she favored most.
She traveled along the shore far away.
She soon found a place where no one would play.
She kissed the turtle on its small shell.
She placed the turtle in the water and wished it well.
The turtle began to swim far into the blue sea.
The girl was left simply happy as can be.
She began her long journey across the shore home.
Something stopped the girl, as she looked to her side she found yet another sea turtle all alone.
