My soul yearns
in hope to find
its reflection:
a woman with wisdom
a couple of millenniums
older than her age,
sound judgement
in dire situations
that echo fortitude.
She possesses
an unbreakable nexus
of fidelity and sincerity,
to know
what she breathe for
and overstand it.
I choose
oneness of mind and body,
a black Madonna, Isis
dignity glowing above her shoulders
like a halo
where the discipline
in her upbringing
unfold the bold elegance
of her persona.
