JAZZY JIGGY LOVE
Mark Tulin

There’s no dance I want to do,
than the dance of nature,
spreading my limbs out wide,
cutting the cake,
moving under a jive sun,
in the colors of the mind,
showering my little head
with excitement

There’s no sensation that I want to feel,
than life itself,
the fragrant early morning,
sounds of the pitch-black night,
lazy country afternoons
where I rock myself to sleep
in a hammock between two jiggy trees

There’s no universe I want to breathe in,
than the one I swing in now,
jazzy tunes I want to play
with my saxophone of love.

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.
