- Fly, Virgin Mary -

Dear little insect
                         «Our Lady's Bird» bring good luck
                                               ~
                                     Aphids for supper
                               a red robe with seven dots
                               Virgin Mary sent from God

Judy Ball Date: 7/14/2018 12:44:00 PM I love this Anne-Lise. Ladybugs are a favorite in my garden. If I see one I actually catch it and take it home to my own garden and turn it loose.
