Adorn Her Grace
Adorn her grace
By Michelle Morris

Pull the curtains down
Close the stage
The play is done
The throne is changed
Another monarch
Leaves in peace
New heir today
A house of sadness
People come
And people leave
Life goes on
Despite our pleadings
Sadness and hope
Intermingled
Flags at half mast
Respect and ceremony
Funeral rites
And gun salutes
Break the silence
Of soulful musings
Black all around
Mourning attire
People crying
Nationwide
Remembrance of
A fulfilled life
Born to royalty
Born to fly
Now angel wings
Adorn her grace
And Heaven welcomes
Her home at last
