my hudson river
i see the river
getting to know you
the tide flowing up
flowing down to the ocean
i feel the roll of the waves
undulating in the breeze
i smell the air
slowly wafting by
i can almost taste the water
slowly going by
I see the birds
soaring in the sky
i hear the sounds of trains speeding
blowing their horns
i see the barges
floating on the river
tug boats pushing
pushing ever so slowly
trees rocks and i
observe it all
but most important
i feel the river
its meditative sense
of peace and calm
its sublimity
enriches my life
