The Bicycle of Life

'Twas once the bicycle of life,
started down a cheerful lane,
past daisies beneath the sun, 
when Mary waved at me again,
just as my bike hit a bump,
And I flew end-over-end,
landing hard upon my head - thump!
Oh bicycle of life, my friend,
why me - to the afterlife you send?

"landing hard upon my head - thump!"... lovely use on onomatopoeia and rhetorical question at the end.
