Crash Into Your World
Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.
I can be as blue as the sky or have a white top.
I roll through my world and crash into yours.
I can be as gentle as a newborn puppy or as vicious as an angered bull, ripping through anything I find.
I will topple anything you put in my way if I am strong enough.
What am I?
Answer
A wave.
A wave can have what is called a white cap.
A wave will roll through the ocean and crash into the beach.
It can be a small wake or a roaring tsunami.
It can topple almost any boat.

| C'mon voters, do you want me to leave or stay? Put LEAVE or Stay at the end of your comments. CAPS so I notice it. Waiting on your verdict. |

| I knew it was a force of nature, but got hung up on Wind for some reason, even though I kept telling myself that the wind has no color.  
Really good teaser. Thanks. |

| I don't often get riddles, but blue/white cap gave me this one right away, with the rest just confirming. I enjoyed it!
Doehead: STAY, if you reread my comment yesterday. People who weren't on yesterday probably don't know what you're speaking of. |

| Oh, dear, Doehead. I don't know what happened yesterday, but I WANT YOU TO STAY! 
I like this teaser. I got it. I would have got it faster if it HAD said "white cap." But, it didn't; it said "white top." So it didn't help me - I got it from the rest of the teaser. Good one! Thanks! |

| Thank you for correcting me, avon! I must have interpreted and pictured white top as white cap and so had forgotten what the original said!! |

| doehead, I agree with the comment elentir wrote on yesterday's teaser. You are the one who has to decide if you will stay or not. It just seems that you don't enjoy it very much. I like some teasers better than others, but it doesn't ruin my day when I am not really challenged or when I find one too difficult and have to look at the answer. But you should do the things that give you pleasure as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else. I thought you've been doing a lot better lately.
This teaser was well written--the "white cap" gave it away for me! |

| I got this one right away. Nicely written.
I know this is a few years too late, but doehead, put-up or shut-up. You have never had a teaser on this site. Apparently you can either put-up or . . . |

| Good one, and an easy one to figure out quickly. Do not know if you will see this or not as I seem to be the last one always since my server changed me around, but Doehead, you have as much right to stay as anyone does So I vote, "STAY" |
