Mum's Dinner
The boy rides on the pavement
on his mountain bike
across cracked slabs
and tarmac patches
bumps and holes
make him hold tight
whilst cycling home
for his dinner
he pedals faster
dreaming of pizza
or maybe its chips
or possibly both
he's nearly back
in time for his feast
ice cream for afters
or chocolate cake he thinks
his appetite builds
finally he's home
The front door opens
the smell wafts out
Its mum's shepherds pie again
The boy gets back on his bike
