Bicycle
I have always been lucky
When I was six I got my first bicycle.
I rode it every day until I fell off.
It had a basket on the front and a bell.
Pedalling up roads pushed me so far inside my head that only reaching the end could bring me out.
Going down my bell would disappear as a trail of orange rust would appear behind me.
I loved that bicycle.
Lying in bed knowing that tomorrow it was Saturday
I would get up and stare at it consoled by its beautiful silence.
