Answer:
breaks from the blue-black
skin of the water, dragging her shell
with its mossy scutes
across the shallows and through the rushes
and over the mudflats, to the uprise,
to the yellow sand,
to dig with her ungainly feet
a nest, and hunker there spewing
her white eggs down
into the darkness, and you think
of her patience, her fortitude,
her determination to complete
what she was born to do----
and then you realize a greater thing----
she doesn’t consider
what she was born to do.
She’s only filled
with an old blind wish.
It isn’t even hers but came to her
in the rain or the soft wind
which is a gate through which her life keeps walking.
She can’t see
herself apart from the rest of the world
I would say “rose”
Not completely sure
Let me know if I’m right!
doing what is morally right. not every rule is made to follow, in situations like these, it's best to do what benefits the person involved in a moralistic manner. it shouldn't specifically benefit them, however, but as long as what is morally right is being done, no harm can ever happen.
