the Tortoise Man

 

The Tortoise Man

Slow and steady he walks

Now he sees the finishing line

As the Rabbit sits in hospital


The turning point may happen

The reason he may win his race

Though he takes too long to finish it

Now he may have his chance


Though he misses a few times

Now he stays quiet plotting his move

As the Rabbit sleeps of his illness

The Tortoise Man may strike home


The pandemic causes a heavy toll

The white flags have flown of people's needs

The Rabbit sleeps in hospital

Trying to escape his ordeal


But the Tortoise Man

His opponents laugh at him

Crying wolf so many times

He sees his finishing line
