little ladies

                      On my walk at the beach,
                      all along the tideline, I found thousands of  dead ladybugs.
                      An unsolved mystery.

                      It made me remember something I forgot,
                      the ladybugs in a brown bag in my fridge.
                      Mark and Jen gave them to me.

                      They found them on a walk,
                      by a stream on the Coldspring trail.
                      So many, the rocks looked red.

                      I released them that night.
                      May be they will also end up on the tideline.
