Riding a Bike
by Natalie C. (Grade 12)

Riding a bike,
Is like pedaling through life.
Starting with training wheels to help guide the way.
As we get older the guides go away
Building our own path day by day.

Falling off the journeys bumpy road
Only to get back on and go go go
The harder the ride the bumpier it gets
The sooner we learn the smoother it is.
Riding a bike,
  Is like pedaling through life
