Ladybug, Ladybug fly away home! by

I found this cute ladybug nursery rhyme whilst searching for a title! It was perfect! :) i love ladybugs, they seem so cute but i bet they’re dangerous (red colour!) haha! This one got stuck on my nail and kept slippin. on close observation i could see his little legs running but not going anywhere, so i moved him up and let him crawl around my arm. :) They always remind me of been little and letting the ladybugs crawl up my arm! Sweet memories!

I’m a little ladybug on the go,
Landing on an arm, and now an elbow.
See me fly ‘round and ’round your hand,
Now watch as on your thumb I land.
I’m a little ladybug searching for some toes,
But instead I’ll simply land on your nose.
Now I look around and head for your hair,
I muss it up a bit, then pat it down with care.
I’m a little ladybug looking for a knee,
I’m just so happy you’re not bugged by me.
Now you see me heading for your chest,
This little ladybug needs some rest

    I love it when ladybugs land on my arm! I think I heard that it’s good luck to have a lady bug land on you. :)
    I really like how you focused in on the ladybug by leaving it red and making the rest of your hand monochrome. Love this!

  • Thanks Erika!!! :) its such a nice feeling when they do! Ooh, i hope its good luck! :) thanks for your wonderful comment! x
