cycling haiku


A slow spitting rain
does not slow my journey home.
It does not help though!

Please, Eighteen Wheeler!
Could you respect my right-of-way?
You brushed my elbow.

Wet tires on brick
mean the start of my workday.
Hello Murray Hill.

Stream of consciousness
thoughts flow like a woodland stream.
Did I lock the door?

Hurry! Pedal fast!
A fierce adrenaline rush!
That pit bull can run!

Big Man in Big Truck!
I'm no match for your power:
Beep your little horn!

The fall leaves rush by:
a day-glo frenzy of flame.
A plein air bike ride.

Road wash-out ahead!
But no matter, we go on.
Bikes go anywhere.
