Of Petticoats and Bicycles

His hand tapped the table
Dissolutely he spoke of wanting
wanton in his thoughts
A yearning that could not be satisfied

dyerfrank,

Petticoats and Bicycles -a quaint title.
Spoke of wanting and wanton in thoughts tells us what the poem is about with yearning adding to the theme.
The passion is subtly revealed.
It is a poem structurally sane with lot of inferences going with the words,
Much is left not said as is found in
The throwing of petticoats white, high with every pretty stroke.
A good attempt.
