Ladybird,
or maybe,
Ladybug.
Either way,
it matters
not a bit.
I have red
and black too,
polka dots!
It’s summer
afternoon
busy time.
I’m lucky
and also
good fortune.
Now I will
eat aphids
and many!

That was a fun and cute poem. As for me I prefer Ladybug over Ladybird. I mean they aren’t birds.

Aha, a very good point, Thomas. I guess it depends where we live, still a bug makes more sense, you are right!

Ha ha a little silly maybe. I was just thinking out loud. In Swedish the name for a lady bug is even stranger, nyckelpiga, which tranlsates to key-maid.
