Yolanda Iolanda Jolenta

I'd welcome you tomorrow
more than two thousand years 
as I unceasing live again and again  
after the shredded fabric's 
of thy living flesh being torn
 
into pieces spread sparingly over 
the wild open grandeur leaving 
only soft traces of me like rose petals 
gathering beneath wide oaks and nestled fir's 
I'd wither so over the cold tomb stones 

of thee ancient one's tainted so throughout 
the royal gate's of Yolanda von Vianden 
I'd calmly be reminded of my soul's 
quiet journey beckoning her yet again 
sweet saint Yolanda of Hungary dazzled 

by poverty oh how I thirst of her 
My Yolanda Jolenta of Poland chafe 
an yet I've endured her even more 
knowing life's full immortal rapture 
that I've always lived within her eternally

Princess Iolanda Savvoy dashing scrolls 
above the roman empire showering scent's 
amid Italy's impressive gardens blankets 
of flowers covering the continuous greenery
as my soul venture's on a more subtle canto

cunningly she entered me thee silent civil words
of Yolanda Yolanda King an overwhelming shyness 
aboded into a thinking sphere doting on father hearing 
naïve conversations daintily she sat with 
outspoken words fascist temperamental values

over land an sea I'd catered to her equality
Yolanda the mind body and spirit  of me
