My River View

“Here I can spend hours to unwind and renew-
     with nature's blue sky, rolling hills, river view”.
                                                            __By Poet

From my backyard, I love our river views,
where the Hudson River meets each season's sky
of gray clouds, snow blizzards, or sunny blues.

The river's mood can switch as days roll by, 
from rippling waves of grays topped with frothy tips,
to the calm of a pond's reflective eye.

Day and night, they pass- the barges, cargo ships
chug on from North to South and back again,
while private boats sail round and return to slips. 

But best of all are each new day's windowpane 
that frames the morning sun's majestic rise,
while fiery glows paint both sky and river plain.

These lovely views bring nature to my eyes-
and too, at times, a huge rainbow surprise!
