turquoise like the sky

the guy at the bike shop said, go ahead, see if its' gonna work for ya. It is a single-speed cruiser, white walls, generous in the handle bars, and a bitch to get in my Honda. I looked straight ahead and pushed off like I was 7 again. All I can say is it was true love as I made circles in the parking lot and sped down the sidewalk, my long ringlets behind me like spiral cheerleaders. My heart alive, my heart was alive I tell you, and did I mention, it's turquoise. My thanks goes out to Tammy, she inspires me, and she made this beautiful day on my new bike possible, gracias my sistah!
