Yellow Tandem

Advertisement

I pedal
not knowing
where
I am
or
We are
heading
Sitting on 
A Yellow Tandem

I pedal
We pedal
as it is 
supposed to be...

The soft breeze 
passing through my hair
creates chaos

I pedal again

We pedal again

Red
charming
poppies
gaze at us amazed
woken up 
from their lazy afternoon naps...

St. Victoire
from far away
smiles at us
warm heartedly...

I pedal again
We pedal again

Yellow- green vineyards
still so young
waiting impatiently 
for succulent grapes
envy this
intoxicating ecstasy
in a sunny summer ...

Tiny Birds
ashamed of their
usual melodies
hide desperately
inside gargantuan oak trees
not knowing
what to sing...
I pedal again
We pedal again

Suddenly,
I notice
You,
the chauffeur of my soul
vêtu de blanc et noir

who
pedals, pedals, pedals
sans cesse

I wish
the path
continues
because
the destination
already
paralyses me

Yet,
I pedal again
We pedal again
