Ode to a Bicycle My joy my life my red Schwinn Bike. The paths we traveled both near and far as guided by days light and evening star. Oh, how I thirst to see you again and take that one last ride as if I were ten. Though we have parted you are not far away and if you are in heaven I shall see you someday. As God’s shining light brings me forward, I will look back upon my life, to cherish every moment with my red Schwinn Bike. Lord, I pray I have lived right, for when I get to heaven, I shall not want to ask in vain, to let me ride my Schwinn again. Oh, you my joy, you my life, a small boy’s Ode to a red Schwinn Bike.
