meetings on the street

today, i was walking along, sun shining upon my face, eyes looking brightly up to the blue sky, and i felt it land upon my cheek...it's tiny little feet tickling me slightly, saying a tender little hello. i reached up to greet him...mr. ladybug, first name red. he crawled onto my hand, and i welcomed his intimate conversation as he explored the tips of my fingers. the meeting was brief, like a quick hello with one of your friends on the street...he turned around on my palm and faced me, paused for a short moment sending me farewells...and then he opened his wings and flew off into the blue sky that i was admiring just before we had met each other.
