Poem: Yellow Flower by Mark Tulin

I see you in a yellow flower
growing from the fertile soil
soft as a hibiscus petal
as delicate as a stem
blooming at just the right moment
awakening a beauty within

I see you in a yellow flower
the smile of a universe
cooling as a summer rain
vibrant as the morning sun
fragrant as a first love
sleepy under a crescent moon.

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.
