Children's verse story: The Margarita turtle
Walking through the forest,
without being in a hurry,
walks slowly,
the turtle Margarita.
Not far away you have heard,
a moan of pain,
slowly you turn around
looking around.
Among some leaves it appears,
shaking a little head,
it seems very badly hurt
the little stork.
What happened to you, little girl?
Margarita asks
you have a broken beak, sangre and blood on a leg.
I was inside the nest
waiting for my mom,
who went out to look for food
and branches to play with.
Suddenly a strong wind,
like a gale,
pulled my nest from the tree,
and here I came to stop.
My mother very worried
already looking for me will be,
she knows that I am small
and I have not learned to fly yet.
Do not be scared, he said then,
I will take you to cure,
your mother will be very close,
sure she will find you.
Meanwhile, the tired mom,
flying all over the sky,
does not find her little stork
and feels a great dismay.
Suddenly you have heard voices,
that have caught your attention.
your little stork called her
has known her voice.
He came down from the sky flying
feeling great emotion
His little stork is alive!
with his feathers he hugged her.
Margarita very happy
excited looks at them,
they do not stop mimes,
with their beaks caress.
Thank you very much Margarita
we will not forget your help,
and they went away happy
saying goodbye to the turtle.
