Question
deannaart
A little ladybug scampers
Up the flower's stalk
Nothing out of the ordinary
To make her fuss or balk
Then she takes a look up
And , oh what can be seen!
Why it's a little boy
With his watering canteen!
He dumps it on the flowers
Swooshing the ladybug to the ground
Now there's water and mud
and general muck all around
The ladybug resolves herself
To get back on that stem
She'll try one more time
She's determined to do it again
There's no stopping till
She makes it to the top
Then on the soft, warm petals
She'll joyfully drop
2nd metaphor in a while. still getting back into the swing of things. any constructive criticism is greatly appreciated. other than that, have fun! happy riddling!!
