Hi Gypsy. Lol. I love this little poem. Of special note:

turtle's long-term goal
(At least the turtle has a goal. That's more than some people--sad but true.)

Well done. A fun poem. Awesome artwork choice. Xo. M

So very well written and presented, love your Satori, it made me smile, as it relates to the turtle race, and I can imagine the turtle wondering how they are going to complete the journey****kahpot

Hello Gypsy :)
I enjoyed reading your haiku.
The imagery is clear and there's much to be taken from your words.
- The feeling of hope
_ The message of self belief
- The acknowledging of what appears insignificant to one person can be a huge deal to another.
Best wishes as always, Debra

Lol. Yes, it's all a matter of perspective! A "short path" is a turtle's or snail's lifetime long term goal! A cute poem that has a message for all of us. Enjoyed your haiku!

Gypsy,

Do like your contrast between the turtle's long-term crawl around the small pond. Good imagery with koi! Photo illustration and font color choice complement your total presentation.

Delightful haiku, Gypsy!
I can visualize that little turtle's journey...even if our pond still has frozen leaves covering it.
C'mon spring!

Thank you for sharing!
