Turtle Dove

Turtle dove…
Turtle love…
Which came first…
And from where there of…

One sleeps in a nest…
One sleeps on a log…
One lives in a bush…
One lives near a frog…

One flies around…
When we look above…
One sits in a shell…
As snug as a glove…

Are they not friends…
That share a similar name…
Which was named first…
Who can stake that claim…

Or do they even know…
About one another…
Does it really matter…
I bet neither druther…
