What is the best gift you have ever received?

After that you would see every day
The young Pushwood cycling across the small town
Completely naked, as fast as he may
Because no clothes that fit and a racer bike did he own.

@polylogarithmique
During the midwinter? Surely you are mistaken.
Although his clothes did not fit, no pleasure cruise he was taken.
I mean, where would he go?
What is the use of a bicycle in deep winter snow?
He should have wished for a sled, in hindsight, something he perhaps later regret?

@NaturalBornTraveller
I said after
But did not specify how much later.

@polylogarithmique where is the rhyme?
Perhaps delete #23 and post it a second time? :-)

As for later.
10 year past and Pushwood asked for a gift even greater.
At 19 he wanted a car.
But his parents told him he pushed too far.
"Young man, work hard and pay for it yourself,
Don't expect us to provide you with financial wealth"

Traveller,
After,
Later,
They rhyme
If that's what your asking for.

> After,
> Later,
> They rhyme
Perhaps if you're uttering the words when stuttering?

@NaturalBornTraveller
How many common syllables
Do you want for the rhyme to be able?

Try to speak what you write.
It doesn't rhyme right.

As much as I keep speaking,
They keep rhyming.
I am not a native though
And may not speak as I ought.

Not trying to be that guy, but park and talk don't rhyme and nor do grief and eve.
