i sing the bicycle trailer
that connects to my bicycle without a hitch (actually it connects with a clever bicycle hitch that is quick to attach and yet secure)
i sing the bicycle trailer
which i hardly even notice is behind me unless i am carrying two big boxes of kitty litter
i sing the bicycle trailer
which allows me to cart big and heavy loads, as long as they fit on the trailer, and as long as they do not weigh more than one hundred pounds.
i sing the bicycle trailer
especially when it makes the neighborhood kids smile and laugh at the bobbing heads of spring flowers on their way to my garden.
i sing the bicycle trailer
because it makes the green lights work for me (the detectors in the street do not recognize my trailer-less bicycle)
oh, i hope that i am like schultze in the movie "schultze gets the blues," who, a retired salt miner in germany, continues to pull behind his bicycle his bicycle trailer, carrying loads of coal, loads of accordion, and sometimes, as all bicycle trailers occasionally must, loads of empty.
