The Bicycle

The bicycle meant for two,
carries an assortment of cargoes—
humans, their pets, old grannies, young grooms.
Even bunging spanners and screws!
There is always room
for more than two,
on the bicycle meant for two.

If I had a bicycle, besides myself,
what else would I carry, and who?
Rainbow quills with poesy fluffs,
dreams dancing in ballerina shoes!!
