Man on the Motorcycle

 

The

Man on the motorcycle

Can go anywhere

He

Must be

A very important man

A teacher in fact

Going so fast

Making students jump

Out of his way

He toots his little horn

From just behind

To startle

And make you move

To the other side of the path

And he looks irritated

When you look back at him

As if you are in his way

A little bit of power

Of a little pedal

On a little cycle
