St Malo

a tall blonde, white plaited with salt
all elbows and knees,a new menhir
on a guilded stage of

tidewash and wind,crouched under
a sky of ovens and red brick,
serious and wide-eyed

before a sandring that loses
its smile as the sun drowns;
the sea turns to black.

your poems will get more traffic on this site if you post one a day instead of 10. You may get 100 reads in a day instead of a handful. Good luck, this is a great site for poets of all skill levels.
