Cycling without balance wheels


Every day, I go to the terrace to play. I love to ride my bicycle. It is pink in colour, and it can also sing songs. It has a place at the back were we can stick a picture of us. It has a Dicky, and a basket. It also has lights. It has a cute little bell. It also has a mirror.

One day, as I unlocked my bicycle, I was very curious to know why dad came up with his screwdriver and a cutting player. I didn't care. I just rode my bicycle. But dad stopped me. He asked me to get off. He adjusted my seat, and took off the balance wheels! I was surprised! But nervous too. What if I fall?

Dad held onto my bicycle, and I rode it. He held it, because I'll fall, it's just the first time, right? I enjoyed. But dad had to do some work. I started to feel bored. I tried to ride myself. But I fell down. I went back home. 

The next day, I rushed up, and tried to ride myself. And I did! Everybody were surprised! I went round and round the terrace. It was really fun! I got the hang of it! 

I got it, because I kept trying. If we try, and if we believe, everything is possible.

    Yes. Practice makes everything perfect. You are right. Ride the cycle on own, you ride the cycle of fear and you will be pride. Carry on. Cycling keeps you Healthy and energitic. Cycling keeps you fit .

Long Lost Sleep

  After a long, exhausting day, the only thing all of us look forward to is SLEEP. So, as soon as you finish off the last crumbs on your dinner plate, you fling yourself onto your bed, rest yourself in a comfortable position, get your pillow nice and fluffed up, and throw the blankets on yourself. But then... You just realised that you still have your big, wobbly earrings on. So you throw back the blankets and remove your earrings and leave them in their box. And then you're back in your bed, and just as your eyelids are about to close... You realise that you haven't brushed your teeth. So, yet again, your throw back the blankets and get off the bed, letting the annoying, creaky sound fill your head. And then you throw open the door to your bathroom, get your brush ready and squeeze toothpaste onto it, but... The tube seemed to have a hole on the back, which you sadly hadn't noticed. And you get toothpaste all over your hands. Fuming, you wash your hands and get things done...

So Close, Yet So Far

  What you knew you had right beside you What you never knew might leave you What you had neglected for days What you wished was still there, within your gaze. That miniscule amount of hope  That you feel lingering close by You could open out your arms, embrace it, But suddenly it's high in the sky. Once within your grasp, But now away from you, Don't waste a moment on a wee gasp, Time won't stop, and the moving hope too. Each moment is to be caught, Each memory to be cherished, Hold them carefully in your arms, Before they shall vanish. The consistent inkling when you feel, Something close, yet so far, Is only because you know yourself, That it is within your grasp, but not within your confidence. If you're positive enough that you can hold it, The 'it' that is mysterious and something only you know, You can hold the precious 'it', Clutch it tight, don't let it go. You must be close to the end of the day, With its cliffs and slopes and Rocky slides,...

Stars

  Shining in the vast night sky, I see them from afar. Dominated by the brighter moon, There glimmer the stars. Mostly hidden by the cruel shadows, Or by the thick, misty clouds. But they do not give up, they still glimmer on, They make their voice be heard loud. Even though they're hardly seen, Even though they're hardly thought of, They know that someday they will be, Thought of, honoured and loved. So take an inspiration from stars, Show your true essence, Continue to shimmer, ignore the darkness, Because one day it'll fear your presence.
