'Do you think I should get a motor-bike? ' <br />said Gracie to her Mum. <br />'Not this year, dear, ' her Mum replied, <br />'Some books might be more fun' <br /> <br />'But I would love to buzz along <br />much faster than a scooter. <br />Does a motor-bike need to have a horn? ' <br />'No, dear, I think it's a hooter.' <br /> <br />'But I could go to the shops for you, <br />and get things on your list. <br />I'd be there and back so quickly <br />I wouldn't be even missed.' <br /> <br />'You're very kind, Grace, and I know <br />a motor-bike would be heaven. <br />But we must keep the law, you see. <br />And this year you're only seven.'<br /><br />Michael Morris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/not-so-easy-rider/
