this is for Jingyi

once there was a turtle and a rock

they lived together in the ocean

the rock would come above water every day for 5 hours

and the turtle would sit on the rock, and enjoy the sun

the turtle would talk and talk to the rock

but the rock never replied

the rock was a great listener though

and always remembered what the turtle said

one day a seagull came and hovered over the water

the rock rose out of the water to see the sun, and wait for the turtle

the seagull saw the rock and tried to sit on it

but the bird felt the rock was cold and wet

and got off immediately

soon the turtle came

and climbed on the rock

and didn't mention the rock being cold

or wet

and the turtle began to talk and talk

the seagull was very upset and flew away

and screamed "you guys belong together! crazy!"

the turtle is very wise and very old

and so is the rock, very wise and ever old

they knew what the seagull meant

because the turtle wanted the warmth of the sun,

he would sit on the rock

because the rock wanted someone to love

he would let the turtle come and talk

the end
