    The Little Turtle

    BY VACHEL LINDSAY

    There was a little turtle.


    He lived in a box.
    He swam in a puddle.
    He climbed on the rocks.
    He snapped at a mosquito.
    He snapped at a flea.
    He snapped at a minnow.
    And he snapped at me.
    He caught the mosquito.
    He caught the flea.
    He caught the
    minnow.
    But he didn't catch
    me.
