Hold Tight

Hold tight you said, as I was spread across your handlebars Don’t go so fast I screamed, my smile was fixed just like a mask Increasing speed I feared this ride could be my very last Then swiftly we began to rise up in the skies amongst the stars Whilst riding past the fullest moon upon his bike we saw ET Come home he called, just follow me, a chance to meet my family Hold tight you said, as I was spread across your handlebars Image 1 Written 16th October 2019 Contest Name: Make it Seven Sponsor: Joseph May Contest Strand Pick E Sponsor Brian Strand N/A

This is a very beautiful interpretation of image number one. Gave cause for me to remember my first ride when a young child, sitting on the handlebars. A fav... love it my friend...
