RES-Q-Challenge #11

This is for RES-Q-CHallenge #11 from JoAnn....going along with our theme "Gettin' Buggy" she challenged us to make a card with flowers and bigs. Of course I had to use my favorite Little Lady...and Im sure you've noticed that she is purple....well, I saw this story while looking up ladybug poems for my friend's daughter who is having a Ladybug themed party. Her daughter's favorite color is purple too, so I'll be using this for her birthday card! Here is the card....

The Legend Of The 

Purple Ladybugs 

It is said that deep in the Forest Tyrian, 

not so far from the sea,

where indigo grows 

and glows with deep purple 

effervescence,

and flowers of purple and trees 

of green and purple 

meld with the sunshine and sea 

breezes,

there lives a clan of Ladybird beetles 

small and sweet and purple.

They dance and fly in joyous gaiety and 

illuminous animation 

on purple sunbeam mists.

And if you listen with all your heart,

you will hear them laugh and 

sing and giggle 

with purple pleasure, and purple 

delight 

and call to each other in 

bubbling purple tones.

Few passers-by have bothered to walk the 

purple path 

through the Forest Tyrian.

Far fewer have ever set eyes on the 

purple Ladybugs.

But one day, like the dolphins of the sea 

and the whales of the oceans, 

who also call to one another in 

a harmonious timbre,

unknown to humans,

One day, the purple ladybugs will also 

be known 

as the communicative, higher 

intelligence variety.

One day. 

Have a GREAT Day!
