Waves of Life

Splashes of waves;
crashes on rocks,
facts about life
told me, I thought.

Deterred the rocks stood;
crashed harder the waves could.
In bad and good times,
be it rain or sun shines.

Each wave made the rocks glitter;
so does our life,
enriched with experience
better or bitter.

Rushed the water
as it swept by;
so does our life
with smile or sigh!
