Excellent

Is it a ladybug? If so, it sounds like Elliot Page. I noticed you referred to the bug as a male. Yes, it is pretty remarkable the effort bugs go through, when we stop to watch them. Thanks for the read! It's about 10 Fahrenheit here and memories of summer seem quite blissful.

Thanks for reviewing. Not all ladybugs are female. (I didn't know who Elliot Page was so I had to google to discover the transgender connection. I don't live in America or watch many movies.)
I had my beetle be a male so the last line could refer to "his way". Religious types might see the metaphor for "His way".
Snuggle up and keep warm in that chill temperature. (It's summer where I live.)

Lol, the ol' capitalized pronouns, lacking in all subtlety. I grew up being taught to write that way until
it became gag-inducing. But with age, a spoonful of sugar helps the wine go down, and I might be there myself someday. I actually haven't watched a single movie with Page but the American media cannot stop talking about him (or her, depending on the timeline). He's just the first celebrity I could think of who had switched from female to male. Normally it seems to go the other way.
