Ladybug Husks
Walking through a dreaded dream,
Silence falling through the seams.
Soft rustles float up as I walk
Through a field of ladybug husks.
The floor littered with corn-kernel petals,
Softly scratching like rusty metals.
Sad, I see, as closer I look
At the hundreds of dried-out ladybug husks.
Like bleached-out wilted dandelion puffs,
There lies the tomb of the ladybug husks.
