Best Elizabeth II Poems

See there! She flies about the moor
Upon her favoured mount.
The waving, flowing grassy shore
bears hoofprints all about.
The waves her steed surmounts.
Her hair is flying here and there;
She hasn't thought of care.

Her little sister, Margaret Rose
Thro' panelled glass observes
As Lilibet, the rider, goes
At breakneck turns and...

In memoriam:  Queen Elizabeth II died on 8 September 2022. May she Rest in Peace.

Gracious and a constant all my life,
not bending to public opinion o’ strife,
your sharp wit could cut like a Bowie knife.
With statesmen you did meet—had an excellent seat.
Paddington Bear, so...

ELIZABETH  II.
Decorated  streets  sing  with
Jamboree,
These  is  the  song  for
My  Queen,
I  peep  from  this  tall  tree,
Dreaming  in  the  aquarium
Of  wishes,
Now  I  am  Her  sibling
Attending...

Queen Elizabeth II
21st April 1926 - 9th September 2022 

Two rainbows embellished the teary sky
Just as impending news of doom drew nigh
A spectrum of hope 
From the Lord of hosts
As a sad world waved the Monarch goodbye.

Sovereign Queen Elizabeth may you fly
Into the arms of...

The 8th of September twenty twenty two
A day of sad news is brought to you
London Bridge has fallen this was said
At eighteen thirty two Queen Elizabeth II  is dead

Her Royal Highness reigned for seventy years
Her subjects she'd blood, sweat and tears
The longest reigning monarch...

Queen Elizabeth the Second passed
leaving the World in a mournful state.
How can this be--one who's so steadfast.
She tempered Britain's every fate.

Barely a bride on her honeymoon,
she learned her father, the King, had died.
Her life changed, becoming Queen so soon,
honeymoon left, that life set aside.

For seventy...

On the shore I see the colours of the skies that whisper on the ebb and flow of the tide .
My quiet thoughts gently tumble in my mind and I am free
To just be
Barefoot on pebbles 
My faerie kingdom by the sea 
My home where...

The great leaders of history 
give their name to the period 
The Victorians have a story 
carved out to their merit. 

Survival isn’t a given, 
success is of living,
processes stay driven
progress beyond vision 

There’s always an enemy 
wishing to impose the unknown 
that future a...

"The Tudor Rose, The Lion and The Sceptre of Light" 

God bless 
The Queen 

Shield of Tudor Rose

and Lion rampant
the 3 of Lionheart, 
guardant passant

Unicorn and azure harp
rose and thistle stand 
with shamrock, connected

wars and battles 
conflicted, a home 
not seamless, 

stands firm, apart

sanctuary is...

The orb and sceptre, ring and crown
each with its cross adorned,
displayed the rule of Christ alone
to mark your fealty sworn. 
But stripped to simple linen gown
and hidden from this globe, 
for power to serve your earthly throne
the oil of heaven flowed. 

You sought to serve...

I recall the time – 1953,
somewhere around the first of June.
A special invitation by Granny
to come in the late afternoon.

My grandparents shared their television
first of a few that were owned in that day.
We drove ten miles for a grand occasion
happening four thousand miles away.

My inauguration...

I'm not a Monarchist but I don't hate
The Queen. I lied to her when I was nine
At Finningley it was. We had to wait
For ages for her standing in a line

She asked me if we had a special day
Off school to come and see her...

Gentle sway by the centre

The bell tolls for thee
Most Gracious servant 
bearing thou to thy deserved rest
And as thou art earthly borne by men of the sea
our prayers that flights of angels 
have now carrieth thee to the merciful throne 
of our heavenly Father,
through him...
