An ode to a flower
Meet my sweet Violet. My tchotchke, if you will. She has some more blooming to do, as I’d like to change out the crank, stem, and perhaps the bars at a later point.
I built the wheels myself. She is small but mighty. I adore her so much, she’s my daily beast right now. She gets a lot of comments, but mostly said with love. I’m always happy to see other mini velos reppin out there. I love my clown bike forever. If you see me in the wild, say wassup.
Because I’m a romantic, an excerpt from “The Violet” by Goethe:
A violet in the meadow grew, Bowed to earth, and hid from view: It was a dear sweet violet. Along came a young shepherdess Free of heart, and light of step, Came by, came by, Singing, through the flowers.
