Analysis of Balance
The eagle soaring handsomely in the air; balanced itself adroitly on its pair of long wings,
The car traversing like a bullet on the satiny carpet of land; balanced itself beautifully on its armory of splendidly inflated tyres,
The colossal building standing on obdurate soil; balanced itself with nonchalant ease on its tremendously fortified foundations,
The cockroach transgressing mournfully towards the sordid lavatory seat; balanced itself with precision degrees of control on its fleet of multiple legs,
The gigantic tree looming large in the bountiful fields; balanced itself amazingly on its jugglery of slender branches; its entwined ensemble of juicy roots,
The boundless pages of the medieval history book; balanced themselves dexterously on the flimsily serrated thread in the absolute center,
The voluptuously rosy tongue; balanced itself marvelously between the two
intricate chambers of mouth,
The impeccably flawless shirt; balanced itself gorgeously on its entire festoon of rotund buttons; its dual pair of languidly suspended sleeves,
The ingeniously crafted tiny brain; balanced itself tranquilly between two synchronized hemispheres,
The sizzling cup of heavenly flavored tea; balanced itself divinely between the edges and the compact bottom of the kingly ivory cup,
The celestial waterfall culminating into an superlatively alluring spray after smashing against the rocks; balanced itself animatedly between the gargantuan cliffs of the indefatigably towering mountain,
The corrugated carpet of road; balanced itself meticulously between a dispersed fraternity of vehicles; ranging from as varied as flamboyantly whirring cars to the impoverished and diminutively squeaky bicycle,
The wooden body of big boat; balanced itself delectably between its pair of gawky oars and the tumultuous fury of the rustic sea,
The perennial coat of absolute darkness; balanced itself magnificently between the brilliantly illuminated day and the shimmering wall of resplendent twilight,
The stubbornly protruding nose; balanced itself in splendid unison between both the island's of rubicund cheek and the merrily dangling earlobes,
The sacrosanct demeanor o the glistening bell; skillfully balanced itself between the holy interiors of the temple and the air circulating placidly outside,
The countless lines sprawled on the sweaty persona of palm; stupendously balanced themselves between the long knotted fingers and the sturdily sculptured wrist,
The dog inundated with fathomless fur on its skin; balanced its intransigently curved tail between its abraded claws and angled legs,
Every human trespassing on the trajectory of this planet; balanced himself magnificently on his two feet and strong arms,
And every life spawned in this Universe by the Creator; sagaciously balanced itself between its share of enchantingly good and diabolically bad.
