A BICYCLE IS FOR LIFE ~ NOT JUST CHRISTMAS !
We always went
to town Saturday
but this week
it was different !
My PAPA said
that I could
choose a BICYCLE !
My first grown-up
BIKE - with Gears
Bell & Lights !
Thanks for visiting ~ comments please ~ Love ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡
BRIAN & I like FORMS that restrict the length of the POEM !
Poetic Forms ~ like Haiku - Senryu - Limericks & Sonnets etc.
One of our favorites is the Acrostic which is limited by the
number of WORDS in the TITLE. A DECA - TRI Poem has
TEN lines and each line has THREE WORDS (not three syllables)
It can be ONE ten line verse ~ or any pattern of lines ! This
example is 4 3 3. A DECA - TRI Poem does not have to RHYME !
Please check our latest FUSION ~
*What*s your favourite mode of transport ?*

A good write B&A. Oh yes, I remembers it well, me first bicycle - a mini penny-farthing with stabilisers! Or that one with square wheels a long time ago, before someone invented the round wheel. Now, now, Fido - saying 'On yer bike' when he's in a mood! lol.
ANGELA HERE ! Good Morning Uncle Steve - free til 3 so just checking MPS ! Pleased you enjoyed the presenattion ! Of the historic BYKES I like the HOBBY HORSE best whic you push with your FEET (wiv bover boots on !). I always fall off PENNY FARTHINGS before I get going ! The ROUND WHEEL was nvented over 7000 years ago ! Didnt know you were that old !
Blessings & Joy to YOU & YOUR Precocious Pooch !

I am more interested in the story that you have to tell...what the poem is about, rather than the type/format of the poem.
Haven't been able to ride a bicycle.
I still join in for a regular Lucky Draw where the main prizes are bicycles. Not sure why I do it because even if I won a bicycle, I may not ride it out of disinterest.
Participation, anticipation, just join in...I guess.
ANGELA HERE - GOOD MORNING J44 - Thanks for your comment. Some of the POETRY READING GROUPS Brian & I have been in - You have to explain the STRUCTURE of the POEM (meter & rhyme pattern etc) before you get to the SUBSTANCE ! On this site We only mention the Structure the first time We introduce a new one ! One often wins a PRIZE in a Raffle etc one really in essence has no use for ! Between the ages of 5 & 25 I had lots of different BYKES ! In Life & Love one always has to be a PARTICIPATOR or DIE !
Blessings & Peace & Joy to YOU & YOURS
Love ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡💙🧡💙🧡
Still the most common wheeled transport in use - and we never forget our first bike.
Thanks SURESH ~ Millions in Daily use in CHINA - INDIA & AFRICA & S America ! In the UK a used BIKE is cheap (£30 = $40) reuires no Fuel or licence and porduces little CO2 ! If we all went back 200 Years to 1819 there would be no cars and we would all be on Horses or Bikes ~ AMEN ! My first BIG bike was a hybrid made by one of my PAPAS Friends ~ which I had for four years (12 to 16 !) it gave me FREEDOM !
Blessings to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian 🧡💙🧡
A point of fact - the use of any non-human method, like horses, bullocks, cows ect., all generate adverse CO2 and green house gases, by the increased numbers of animals bred for that purpose.
VERY TRUE SURESH ~ All animals exhale GREENHOUSE GASSES ~ but only a fraction of that produced by an I/C Engine. I/C engines also produce SOx & NOx poisonous oxides of Sulphur & Nitrogen which cause ACID RAIN ! Despite the millions of ANIMALS used for Transport & Food prior to the Industrial Revolution the atmospheric CO2 remained constant @ 250 ppm. It is currently 415 ppm and rising ! Electric cars dont produce CO2 but if the electricity is produced from OIL or COAL fuelled genertaors they DO ! Thanks for your comment !

Thanks for your comments JOE ! I got my first MICKY MOUSE three wheeler for CHRISTMAS when I was FOUR ! It was all wrapped up but the shape gave it away ! Ive had about a dozen bikes since then. I still have a *SIT UP & BEG MODEL with a BASKET* that belonged to my MAMA ! I still use it for trips into the Village & the Post Office ! Brians on the other hand is a State of the Art Touring BIKE with Panniers ! I want him to swap it for a TANDEM ! Thanks for your comment !
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love ANGELA & BRIAN
