sibyl

you're home
by your fast train sounding sea
always humming beyond the harebell dune

you work all week in the city
but you can't bear the uniform
so on friday nights
you'll come running home

unsung sea song
you shed your uniform
and hurry into your sea blue floral
maxi dress from long ago
running barefoot
into the sunset surf

you stop
a standing stone
a sibyl by the sea
you know you're better
better in the city
when replenished by your sea change

this sea blue maxi dress flowing floral
wild flowers splashing to the hem
is it the same you wore
when your were ten or sixteen
or is it just your free soul
manifesting

unsung sea song
you're coming into your own
you're wild and tranquil
you're sea and harebell
in your long ago jersey skirt
strewn with flowers of the dune
