Miquelon-Langlade is the larger and less populated of the two communes (municipalities) making up the French overseas collectivity of Saint Pierre and Miquelon, located to the south of Newfoundland in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. It consists of three geological islands: Miquelon, Langlade and Le Cap, connected with tombolos (sand dunes). The communal seat is the settlement of Miquelon, on the northern tip, where the entire island's permanent population of 623 is located. Miquelon Airport provides flights to Montreal and to nearby Saint-Pierre.
Located in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, west of Newfoundland's Burin Peninsula, Miquelon-Langlade covers a total land area of 205 square kilometres (79 sq mi). It is made up of three geologically distinct islands bound together by tombolos—long strips of sand dune— Le Cap in the north, Miquelon (Grand Miquelon) in the center and Langlade (Petite Miquelon) in the south.
On the south of the Miquelon Island is a large lagoon known as the Grand Barachois which is host to a large population of seals and other wildlife. Miquelon is also a well known destination for bird watching.
One Saturday on A & St. Marks,
What caught my eye west side of the park,
Was a fiery spark with eyes so dark.
Skin glazed to gold from equator's sun light,
And hair as black as my darkest of nights,
And her 10-eye boots and A-1 Flight...oh that's so right.
Words from her mouth flew in rapid fire.
What could I do to ground this live wire?
Binaca'd my doggie breath, tucked in my spare tire.
Dare I approach this Latina Rose?
My heart ablaze, my gaze of lust froze,
Watching her put those steel toes to some ho's nose...that's how it
goes.
Dropped to my knees, wiped the blood from her Doc's.
Gave compliments to her sweet knuckle knocks.
Gave her my phone number shaking in my socks.
A smile and "gracias" was her reply.
"Hasta luego", that was goodbye.
