My first time

Riding a cycle

As a little kid

I remember

Quite vividly

Father’s hand

Holding the cycle seat

At the back

Teaching me to pedal

As I  balance

In complete faith

In the hand

Holding me safe

Wheels spin

On the dirt road

I sense the wind

In my face

As we gain ground

The cycle me & dad

I smile happily

And I turn to glance

At my father

But I see him afar

Beaming with pride

Signaling a thumbs up

And then it hits…

I am cycling

On my own now.

In faith & self belief

Confidence springs 

As I pedal on in faith

Life is like a cycle

Keep pedaling 

And remember 

Roads may seem rough 

As terrain turns tough

But there is always

Guidance in need

And signs…

That assures

You are enough

For you.

Ride on in faith.
