Cycling anecdote
This morning the traffic lights jumped from yellow to red just as I was approaching a pedestrian crossing. I stopped. A man and a small boy were standing on the sidewalk, waiting. The man turns to me and comments angrily or sarcastically:
Zu müde zum velofahren? (= too tired to cycle?)
I responded that I have a red light.
Somewhat weird comment. And he sounded angry.
Perhaps I didn’t fit in with his view of “rowdy” cyclists that ignore traffic lights.

Paul Gerhard “Ich steh an deiner Krippe hier”
Mahalia Jackson “Go tell it on the mountain”
Johann Sebastian Bach “Ich lasse dich nicht denn du segnest mich denn”
Some ancient poetry that crossed my internetz path:
