Queen's Birthday

birth, birthday, celebration, dad,

LONG LIVE THE QUEEN © TANKA 

Queen’s birthday April 21
Birthday of my Dad the same
And his fourth daughter’s
As is the same as my son’s
Dad cried, “A King for A Day”!

Always thought we were special especially when stuck in a classroom with the Queen up front and center---than Canada was still under the British Union Flag so her picture was up a lot in public places as well. Never came across anyone else born that day we knew so to tell 'all' when children was something to spout about and become 'princess for the day'!.....didee
