Ladybug Journeys

a poem of a quiet afternoon

A ladybug journeys
up Hawkweed stem
searching for another

Dark-spotted red bug
with which to fly high
the ladybug labors on…

A squirrel scampers
through leaf litter and soil
searching for another

Nut she had buried
some time ago Spring
the squirrel labors on…

Chickadee and titmouse
nuthatch and goldfinch
searching for another

Black sunflower seed
or millet or worm
the birds labor on…

I absorb the sun
I notice their sounds
each searching for another

While creatures toil and fret
and summer besets
I, thankful, rest on…

dots
red fire anti bug
the best
the lady
is a rest
a fist
full of benefits!
