Waves On Shore

Sometimes big and sometimes small,
Sometimes rough and sometimes sweet-tempered,
Sometimes I knock people around, with a rigorous roll,
Sometimes people enjoy the time they spend with me,
Sometimes they don’t,
I may scare you but I’m very friendly,
You can do many things with me,
Like surfing and swimming,
Some people struggle to use me,
It’s all up to you,
I’m a lot like “life”,
honourable and diabolical,
It just depends what you do with me,
They call me the deep blue ocean.
