Bicycle Built for
Two
Be mine, he said,
Because I love you.
We
Belong together. This
is not
Boutade – oh no,
But rather,
Backdrop for a billion brilliant bons mots…
Billet-doux.

Notes: The form is Pleiades. The poem was inspired by Sepia Saturday's prompt having to do with bicycles and tandem rides, couples, balancing and fun.
A bicycle billet doux! I'd go along for the ride.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet, first the photo, and your poem!
ReplyDeleteA lovely little poem. What a pity the two lovers have been decapitated!
ReplyDeleteThere is a poet among us!
ReplyDeleteI think the decapitation makes it a far more intriguing picture and a perfect match for such a poem.
ReplyDeleteVery clever poem, but I must confess that I took several side-trips to the dictionary beginning with "pleiades."
ReplyDeleteYour creative poem makes the picture all the more intriguing!
ReplyDeleteClever verse, indeed!
ReplyDeleteVery sweet indeed!
ReplyDeleteJust stopped by again to congratulate you on your Honorable Mention in last week's Limerick-Off. Great job! Limerick of the Week 82.
ReplyDeleteVery nice, thanks for sharing.
