The Tides

It was timed at the best time,
It formed a Titan-like tide
It swept over us, cooling us down
Some were fine, others with a frown

We were a mess, but I didn’t care;
I wanted more, I didn’t get a scare
But then, I saw it, 
it was coming for me

I ran away like a coward.

It kept on following me,
Now I was scared.
I ran all the way to the grass, 
And all my mum did was put it in a glass

I was relieved, but I couldn’t believe it
I wasn’t afraid of a wave two times taller than me,
But what I was scared of was…
A crab 100 times smaller than me!
