Parched Memory From 1969

Pedaling along 
     a rocky road, 
     a dusty road, 
     a hot and sunny road.
Pedaling past 
     dry, rocky fields, 
     dry, dusty fields, 
     hot and sunny fields.
Surprised to see 
     a lily flower,
     a lonely flower,
     a kid stoning it.
Pedaling back 
     The setting sun lay low across the field.
     Boy, flower and memory are long gone.
