Book synopsis

Sea Turtle Breaking Through

Swimming and pushing hard 

through the daily tightness, 

teasing oxygen from the ocean

my loggerhead turtle is determined 

to gain mileage and not take forever 

to get safely ashore.

She must be vigilant 

watch out for predators 

and escape from a sea lion 

to find a home

on a sandy beach and look

for a safe place to lay her eggs.

She did not burrow like a clam 

on the bottom of the ocean.

Instead, she smashes

through the roaring blue-green waves. 

With her bright determined body,

she is strong of heart, 

breaking through all setbacks, 

knowing time is running out.

If she arrives on the sand 

she will haul

herself up the beach at night 

and lay her fragile eggs.
