T was a tortoise
All yellow and black
He walked slowly away
And he never came back
(E. Lear)
T ‘s for two tortoises
Stuck in a box
And they ain’t going nowhere
Unless they are boughtoises
(C. Ybergrot)
Okay you may sneer but you find a rhyme for tortoise – go on.
We are too lazy to look up the date but assume from the writing that these are 1950s or 1960s. We like them and so will you.
The box is in good condition and so are the tortoises
