Thoughts On a Bicycle: Poems and Short Stories

Life, to be sure, can be an interesting ride. Thoughts on a Bicycle is a collection of poetry and short stories, which hopefully will inspire and transport the reader through their own individual experience. This collection reflects my distinctive journey. For life is, indeed, like riding a bicycle - with all of its ups and downs. We go from one type of vehicle to another as life changes. From two or three wheels to motorized or pedal-powered, over smooth or rough terrain - uphill or downhill. That’s what keeps life challenging, often demanding, yet always fascinating and always ＂worth the ride＂. Enjoy this odyssey on your own personal ＂bookcycle＂. Never give up. Always persevere. For one never knows exactly where your travels may lead. That is the journey. That is the discovery. That is each reader’s own unique ride. It is a treasure that no one can ever take away from you. May we, therefore, look ＂both ways＂ - backward and forward with appreciation of each effort made on our own highly individual rides through life. We may occasionally need to brake. We may sometimes break down. But just fix what is broken, pace yourself, regain your speed - and ＂carry on!＂
