Royal Wedding

There’s not a thing in history (Excluding a beheading) That gets one’s knickers in a knot Quite like a royal wedding. We all remember watching as Diana claimed her prince. No spectacle’s come close And we’ve been waiting ever since. The wait is over, for today Prince William will be wed; And millions, normally asleep, Will watch the pomp instead. This televised event has reached The level of obsession. You needn’t be an Anglophile To follow the procession. I’m sure that many commoners, So sad to see Will marry, Are wondering what they can do To get their hooks in Harry. If one should e’er succeed, Historians would be in knots; Three commoners all in a row – Elizabeth would plotz! But that may never happen Or be years and years away. Let’s put that thought aside and focus On today’s display. For this extravaganza Makes us feel that we’re attending. I hope this time the fairy tale Provides a happy ending.
