Chicago River
City pictures on your water,
buildings are pushing banks.
You are washing them with tide,
then adoring them as ribbon.
You are moving with affection -
carrying city as reflection.
Boats with tourists are passing
with the rays of warming sun.
You remember running prairies,
bowing bridges standing lone –
glassy buildings now stand strong.
Misty lasting quiet landscape.
Trees are standing on your sideways
and the people look with joy.
