The Knight- Poem based on "An Incident"

The Knight

He ran
He rode
He rode the bicycle 
That led him here to there

But one day
He rode down the cracked roads
Of the country
His sisters waved to him
From the door

He smiled
Yes, he smiled
Sisters, sisters, how valuable you are to me

He rode happily down the road
Suddenly the cracks overrode him
He falls

He feels a sickening taste
In his mouth
A hard object piercing his tongue
For it is his tooth

Turning he looks at his sisters
Sisters, sisters, sisters, look at me
And slowly the crying sisters rushed 
To the brother's aid.
