Is the ocean blue
Or green
Or something
In-between?
Does she welcome visitors
As new friends,
Or is he a dangerous drunk
You can never truly know?
Is it the cautious or the adventurous
Who are rewarded?
Those who prudently respect its power
Or those who arrogantly try their fate?
Who can speak for the ocean?
She will speak for herself.
But if she is anything like us,
She is always something in-between.
