My First Tricycle

My first tricycle should have been built for two
My baby sister jumped on the back
Down through the woods we zoomed
Running into a tree, I scraped my knee
Across the handle bars she flew
My beautiful tricycle could not be fixed
The cuts and scrapes were only small knicks
We never rode a tricycle again
But me and my sister
Are forever best friends

So cute, Adrienne! I remember my first tricycle, and the time I learned to ride a two-wheeler without my dad holding on to the saddle! Well done!! Best wishes, Keith
