Turnip the Turtle's Rainy Day

When the weather got rather cold,
Turnip the Turtle's legs started to fold....
Inside his shell he'd hide for a spell,
Where he'd gone to, no - one could tell !
No - wonder Turnip had the rainy day blues,
A shell in bad weather wasn't the best home to choose !
In three inches of snow, you could only see the round of his back -
He left muddy footprints along on the track !
So Turnip the turtle went looking for an umbrella,
Something that he could share in red and yellow !
He tried a palm leaf - it was soggy beyond belief !
The hole in the leaf let the rain in - good grief !
Even a cardboard box would be a better place to keep his socks...
But he could only find a whirlpool in between the rocks !
From above, the rain poured down...
There was no where to shelter all over town....
Till Turnip spotted a fantastic umbrella shop,
Where he decided to make a stop....
There were red ones, blue ones, yellow and green,
The most beautiful umbrellas ever seen!
He paid in total, three pounds ten....
Then made his way back to the beach again....
The umbrella was a great place to rest his weary legs,
To shelter from the rain and lay his eggs....
