Monarch

Summer turned to fall
leaves change colours
the warmth has left
like warmth of a life
leaving cool weather
a breath of death
like the moodiness of fall
a time of sorrow
news of sadness
death of a monarch
a beloved queen
who reigned supreme
a life given to service
just like seasons close
so ends her reign
God bless our queen.

As Anne-Lise says, may she rest in peace because her life of late had become so stress filled. I know she hated leaving England in such turmoil. It truly is the passing of an era. God Bless, JB

What a beautiful poem and tribute to the Late Queen Elizabeth . She was truly a wonderful human being who showed her love for her subjects in a very elegant way. It feels strange calling Prince Charles King Charles and I feel at a loss when I can't refer to Queen Elizabeth. May she find peace light and love where she has gone to and may Charles have the strength and support in his reign as did his mother. hugs and blessings Jennifer

Like Rico, I thought this would be about butterflies too. I am not a fan of the royals, but your poem was lovely.

Not all are a fan of the Royals like all are not fans of our political leaders. A mess is what I would call it nowadays. love phyl
