Cycling
So up the road and turn at the end
Looking back to see your friend
Then second gear turn left along the road
Waving to your friend to follow
Like it’s some kind of code
Then to the bridge cross the road and turn right
By now the cycling starting to bite
The muscles in your legs and thighs
Trying desperately not to swallow any flies
Then through a quaint little village
With one little shop
Then onto the path with a little bunny hop
Look round to make sure your friend is there
Wondering, should just give him the bus fare
Out of the village and up the hill
Checking the water flask to make sure it’s full
Then comes another peak
With some trees, good place to take a leek
Then down the slope what a relief
That hill put a tear in your belief
That you can finish the cycle ride
Now you have a stitch in your side
But no your resolved your going to the end
Then you look back, where is my friend
You spy a pub should we stop
To sample that fine Yorkshire hop
You look to the sky, it may not be wise
Just as you ride into another swarm of flies
The light is dimming it wont be long
Before the birds start singing there last song
So off you push along the straight
Then realise you have to stop and wait
For your friend has grinning from ear to ear
Riding one handed for he’s holding a beer
The final stretch is in sight
Panting away running out of light
Over the bridge were nearly back
Raining should have brought me Mack
Down the hill homes in view
Thankfully cos you need the loo
That’s it not doing it again
Cos cycling is most definitely a pain

lol I thought it was really good
Did you mean to misspell 'leak' though? because you spelt it with two e's, as in the vegetable...
anyway, a star for you!!

Well, I doubt if W.H.Auden, T.S.Elliot, Wordsworth, Ted Hughes, Shakespeare, Wendy Cope, Sylvia Plath, or Siegfried Sassoon will be fighting with you for a place in Poet's Corner.

For me a poem has to have rhythm. It does not inevitably ought to rhyme even though it needs to hit my thoughts. i think of readability of expression is important besides. i do no longer opt to 2d wager what i'm analyzing approximately. I constantly seek for what I term "poetic gem stones"interior the text fabric.

Its good and all but you're trying to hard to rhyme, it sounds kind of cheesy because your telling like a little story and then you go off subject about peeing in the trees basically. Poems are about flowing and your poem doesn't necessarily flow. All in all good job, and its amusing because cycling is somewhat of a pain.

Pretty good. You spelled 'cause wrong though. And the way you used the word it should be spelled 'leak'. Otherwise it's really good. You must have spent a lot of time on it.
