tentoumushi love
yeah ladybug, ladybug,
fly away with me
one thousand screaming fans can’t
rid the house of ladybugs
The theme at CDHK today is “tentoumushi” (ladybug)
and ladybug season will begin soon enough…

This is a happy tanka–one insect I love.

Ha–charming. There are the old native lady bugs and now many that have come from China–there are a little lighter orange in color–and they definitely do not go away for the fans! Thanks, Lynn. k.

Yes, K, our area has been invaded by those Asian beetles!

I still love watching a ladybug crawl on my hand…a child’s face glows and mine lights up too:) this is something I hope I never grow out of …beautifully penned, Lynn!
