(When Itaught you
at elght to Tide
abicycle,) jopimg along
beside you
(as you wobbled away
on two round wheels,)
my own mouth rounding
in surprise (when you pull
ahead down the curved
path ofthe park,)
for the thud
Of your crash (as I
sprlinted to catch up,)
(while you grew
smaller, more breakable
Wlth distance,)
umping, pumping 。
由 your life, screamlne。
With laughter,
了he hair flapplng
behindyoulhkea
handkerchief wavling
goodbye.
