Harmless....
 The huge waves of winter have subsided.... leaving clean beautiful blue water... I see this turtle coming towards me in the blue blue waters of Waimea Bay, Oahu      he reaches a certain point and puts his flippers in neutral... tilts his head and looks at me... He realizes I'm not a shark, so he continues on.... to his left , on my right...     he swims right around me...he was a beautiful little turtle...   I loved the fact that to him, I appeared harmless....     Summer is around the corner and i am delighted that in the ocean... ..   I am a harmless island gal.............
