LONG LIVED THE QUEEN LONG LIVE THE KING

-

How do we write in just a

few words

The feeling of mourning

and tears

To a lady who served

us faithfully

Over so many years? Those famous words now

ring out,

That we heard for so long, As we would always say

of her

She never put one

foot wrong.

But not just as a monarch And our highly

regarded queen

But as mother, grandmothe­r and great-grandmothe­r

A lady of high esteem. A twist of fate to inherit

the throne

She took on this

mighty role,

And took it to its

highest point

And with the deepest soul. Then just in our

darkest hour

A rainbow crossed the land A message from

Prince Philip Reaching out a

supporting hand.

And although she will be

truly missed

Let our anthem sing

As we all stand together

to say:

‘Long live the King!’

Sheila Webb, Chesham, Bucks.
