two bicycles

i saw two bicycles
on the hill
between the tombstones
yesterday

i wondered what the dead
would want with bicycles

or should i say
how odd?
that the living would go
on their journey to and fro
to rest there

but then again
i've never been one
to shy away from tombstones
so perhaps
on the next sunny day
i shall peddle there
and sit beneath the tired tree
right between the faded tombstones:

for on thinking on it --
where exists a better place
to ponder both the dead and living?
