The Hudson

By Charles Pierre

This wide lane of brackish water
runs in a brimming tidal channel,
where sun and wind accent the flow
with strokes of gold, red arabesques,
scrims of lavender mist, and pools
shot through with silver arrows,
all rushing in an undulant flux
of jeweled waves and troughs,
the thrust of vigorous currents,
steady yet unseen below the surface,
driving the river’s cargo of color.

Alexandre Desplat  “Elisa’s Theme” from The Shape of Water
