Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Turtle Journey - LP Zoo

I do a journey, yes I do.
This ornate box turtle do it,
Starting off at Lincoln Park Zoo,
Just newly hatched until I'm fit.
With other hatchlings I am raised
Behind the scenes with keepers' care,
The keepers efforts to be praised
To get me ready for out there.
The Illinois prairie I go
To replenish my threatened kind,
Example to turtlely show
How good conservation can bind.

A radio is on my shell
For all my life story to tell.
