C.M. Davidson-Pickett Poet Acrostic

God Save the Queen

Golden Jubilee passed over a decade ago,
Our monarch still vibrant and strong,
Diamond Jubilee at hand, and still she reigns on.

Swore an oath to Her Majesty, to defend her land,
Air Force uniform I donned while preserving freedom.
Valour, just one aspect of a warrior’s ethos.
Eternal is my loyalty to Queen Elizabeth II - 

The Queen of Canada, our British Monarch supreme.
Her Majesty, a fellow sister-in-arms, a mechanic in WWII,
Endless inspiration to the future generations.

Quintessential woman, she shows us her strength,
Unique in her duties, now mostly symbolic,
Evermore the figurehead.
Everlasting, her legacy will stand,
Namesake for her newest great-grandchild.

Davidson-Pickett May 22, 2015 at 4:20 PM I admire her for the way she lives her life...paying income and capital gains taxes when she is exempt from both; driving the Saudi king around on a tour herself; her service during WWII...such an amazing role model, I agree...hugs...
