Poem: Balancing Life by Mark Tulin

 

I teeter in one foggy moment.

The waves come on either side.

I tell myself to widen my stance,

Straighten my spine.

I imagine myself

To be a pile of rocks,

Different shapes and sizes,

One stacked upon another,

Precarious and unsure

Yet connected and balanced

That never tumble,

Never fall.

I am an author, poet, humorist, and short story writer living in Long Beach, California. I write about various topics, from my early childhood in Philadelphia to my years as a family therapist and finally to my soul-searching in California. These are poetic narratives that may have humorous or serious content or both. Either way, I hope my poetry and stories resonate with you. My books include Magical Yogis, Uncommon Love Stories, Awkward Grace, Junkyard Souls, and Rain on Cabrillo.
