BICYCLES

A Poem by Rene Velez

Everyone dreams big
and some can't afford to,
and some believe life is rigged
still some of us live
by simple thank you's,

until the way out,
and some of us may find out
what life is about,

if not, they say souls recycle,
it takes a few tries to learn
how to ride a bicycle,

because if you listen
you can hear the universe sing,
when the air's too thin
cut your strings, it's a beautiful
thing to test your wings,

we live today
and then one day we're gone,
in between,
I hope you find your song.
