Life is like a seesaw

   Sometimes I am up

   Sometimes I am down

      My life is weighted one way or another

Funny how when I am up

   I am kicking and screaming

   Trying to level off

When I am down I am grounded

   It is touch down time

   Holding what is up in place

Is there some balance between these two

   Is there some message

      Is there some middle ground

Maybe like life it is just a game

   Meant to not be taken so seriously

   Meant to show us the highs and lows in life

      How they play off of one another

Teeter totter is another name for this game

   When we are balanced in the middle watching the game

   We can see what makes us teeter or totter

When we are in living in balance      

   We can see the game of life more clearly

   We can see who is in or out of balance

      High or low

      What is lifting us up or bringing us down 

Let the game play on

   As we see saw in life
