A New Heir To the Throne

A New Heir To the Throne

By Elton Camp

The long-awaited baby is finally here
With much to hope, but some to fear

His general appearance is genetically set
His mama and papa are not cause to fret

Both of them are royal knock-outs
But family genes give reason for doubts

If Prince Charles he looks much like
Have sympathy for the little tyke

For his looks, the child will be hating
If he resembles the Prince of Waiting

But there’s nothing to do but wait 
He may favor Diana or his mom Kate

If appearance genes the Queen passed on 
Like her, he will look good on the throne

But whatever the case proves to be
The royal throne he will come to see

The child’s future is already set
Adoration of the public he will get

But it’s a life he didn’t choose
Yet nearly impossible to refuse

So let’s hope he enjoys a happy life
Free from the recent royal strife
