BICYCLE  BUILT  FOR  TWO

 
As they made the bike,
the bicycle built for two,
the bike makers minds' were elsewhere.
They didn’t imagine the couple,
now grey, who would rode that bike
together for 46 years now.
They once told their kids
those Saturday and Sunday rides
kept them together all these years,
but their kids like the bike makers -

didn’t listen – or didn't imagine - 

but one day - one did - when their parents

hit 50 golden years riding through life together.
