Westminster Winds Senryu

        

                          




                          we honor our Queen
                          in Westminster, tears and grief 
                          her crown, not her end

A crown she wore so well -- despite what the naysayers grumble about. :) gw

Gershon..negative nellies fill this planet! It’s maddening, but all those who grumble can’t hold a match to her accomplishments! And Prince Harry will toast the Royals, he thinks in his”tell all” book? Not really. He’s the goober,not them! He’s just a Nebbish! Pangie xx

Well said. Sorry I've not been able to be on the site as well. I've been having problems seeing and also down with Covid. I'm fine, but just have issues with my eyes. Blessings my dear friend.

Just been watching it on TV, many waited 22 hours to pay their respects. I hope the king follows her example, she was loved by everyone and will be a hard act to follow. Tom

Yes, Tom, CNN was carrying much of it, but not all. Amazing….the love and respect they had for the Queen. Who can be like her? Nobody! But am sure the new King, will give it his all ! Pangie xx

Hello Panagiota, I am glad that Camillia got the to be Queen Consort. Yes she does have a special title. It is an honor for her. Yes there are a lot of Ladies and Lords in the UK. Yes this is a special title for Camille. Hugs xxx Darlene

Hello Darlene. Queen Elizabeth gave her the title… “Queen Consort” as she is now married to the King. It’s a very auspicious title…Diana was also married to Charles but he was not King. So she was Lady Diana Spencer when they met. There are many lLadies and Lords in the UK, but Camilla has a special title. Thank you and best wishes to your new King and his Queen Consort! Pangie xx
