Tristan And Isolde Poem by Katie Diaz

Sent on a conquest for his uncles true love
To Ireland he sails to receive the so-called beautiful dove
So-called was proven true for Tristan fell in love too
Isolde quickly fell as well
But to King Mark she was betrothed oh well
The marriage meant nothing because Tristan meant something
The two lovebirds were a secret
Not for long someone would not keep it


King Mark enraged at the knowledge he had heard
Forgiving of Isolde for her other half not as much
He was banished to Brittany extremely rotten luck
Tristan would do anything to please family and those he loved
So he left Cornwall with an expressionless face
He missed his beloved with her beautiful face



Isolde and Iseult very similar names
Isleut was from Brittany Isodle not the same
He married her anyways to mend his broken heart
Obviously it did not work soon Tristan had fallen ill


The sick man sent for Isolde
Black sails meant his true love was not there
White meant the opposite it would be joy on his despair
Iseult was offended jealousy soon overcame


White sails appeared on the horizon
Tristan did not hear the same
He died from the grief of Isleut saying black
Isodle soon died from broken heart
But they prove true the statement
Till death do us depart
