I Saw

He wooed her with his warm embrace;
She welcomed him, she shimmered and shone;
I saw their waltz of golden grace;
I saw their courtship at dawn.

His cloudburst kisses, her flirtation;
Henry showered his want on June;
I saw their salsa of sultry seduction;
I saw their passion at noon.

In her he spawned waves of elation-
Her bosom swelled; how he was brisk!
I saw their tango of tumultous titillation;
I saw their raw lust at dusk.

He fondled her in a foggy blur;
She sparkled with tranquil delight;
I saw their love, I saw their care;
I saw their romance at night.

P.S. 'She' is the Hudson river, 'He' is a summer day's weather in Jersey (sunny at dawn, rainy at noon, windy at dusk and foggy at night).

BrillianT!..
but as always, could this soul rest without posting an argument (arguable)?

She duped him with a long long pause;
He never picked up the leads;
I saw her fangs, I saw her claws;
I saw her dirty deeds.

P.S. I am not quite sure who "He", "She" and "I" are..

@Nair - Guess what!? 'Him' under 'her' influence is an open book :P

Open book is good. You cant judge it by its cover. :P

the music in it is audible...and if you are quiet enough in your head.. without unnecessary languor, you might even hear their rushing breaths against the winds blowing rhythm...
masterpiece

@Ram - the music drowns out the white noise languor effortlessly :-) thank you!
