You crawled, you dug, you crawled, you dug, you crawled, you left.
You crawled, you left.
You crawled, you dug, you crawled, you dug, you LAID!!
You dawdled.
You almost stayed too long on the beach.
A tide pool ...
and a tribe of Turtle-lovers gave you a lift back to your ocean.

Dennis, Jeff, Van, Carol & Judi assist "Nema"
You, of injured flipper and split shell --
signs of a tiger shark in your past?
You, Sorceress of multiple false crawls, confusing holes in the sand ...
and hundreds of loggerhead hatchlings.
The pluckiest sea turtle we've ever been bamboozled by!
You never gave up.
Oh, Nema -- how you stole our hearts.
