HER ROYAL MAJESTY - THE QUEEN'S MOM

In 1900 on the 4th August the stork brought you

Later you presided over a Commonwealth

Including almost every  nation of  varied hue

Caring for their welfare and good health

 

 

At that time to some it made sense

To some to have their freedom readily

You gave them their independence

Many abused that privilege eventually

 

101 years later you're still serene

As many clamour for the demise of the Monarchy

As the world got cruel and mean

You maintained your cool and kept your dignity

 

You hold your head and still walked tall

To your family you're still their matriarch

But you're still loved by one and all

And to us, still the one and only Monarch

 

My dear Queen, you being mother and wife

Always showed pride and affection

Yet sincerely maintaining a vigorous life

As you jet from nation to nation

 

           You continuously showed a commitment to caring

           And there would be far less violence and rage

           There would be far less misery and less hurting

           If from your book many leaders can take a page.
