|  Ladybird, ladybird, fly away home Your house is on fire, and your children are gone It hadn’t been warm, since they’ve been away long No need to hurry, just to hear their swansong Ladybird, ladybird, stay where you are Your house is just ashes, your children have gone far It’s turned into dust, they don’t care where you are Leave the ashes alone, lest memories scar |

Lovely photo too.

Tragic. I feel sorry for the poor thing. But nicely written!
