Gender Should Never Play a Role

Gender should never play a role, 
In wanting to do anything in life. 
A bicycle lets you take a stroll, 
The scene is overwhelming as you drive. 
 
Women are always portrayed behind, 
With our arms wrapped around a man’s waist. 
Let us not be girls who are confined, 
We must be strong to set the pace. 
 
Riding a bicycle brings joy, 
As the two wheels move the soul; 
It is both safe and thrilling if you enjoy, 
The handlebars allow you to have control. 
 
My bicycle is not just a vehicle, 
To move me from place to place; 
Its chain is made from nickel, 
And we are both ready to race.
