Tortoise Does anyone know the difference? Only a few things are the same, Not even the same family Those others look different than me.
I'm a tortoise with a long neck That's a turtle with its flippers.
See a domed shell You'll know well Long legs And you can peg.
This is a tortoise No other name for it.
A poem by Scout Felicia Wheat concerning tortoises and turtles, and whether anyone knows the difference.
