Best Jubilee Poems

Neither puppy love nor lust, each insists
in its imperfect play. Their hearts resist
both by clinging in its barbaric way.
Youth forgiven. The wolf begs her to stay. 
But a commitment is made in marriage. 
It is not found in a baby carriage.
What do we know of...

I soared upon a seagull’s wings to hear a sailor’s song
      euphoric in my jubilee while dolphins sang along.

Celtic courtship ended
nineteen eighty-two.
Marriage nuptials blended
"us" from me and you.

Seaside lovers heading 
to the Irish Sea
showcase Christmas wedding, 
silver jubilee.  

Touring without hassle -
Isle of Man’s ferry,
Dublin, Blarney Castle,
Cobh Cork, and Kerry.

Guinness, china, mincemeat
pricey souvenirs;
homespun sweaters compete
lamb’s wool profiteers.

autumn rainbow jubilee

shades of autumn burst
 colorful hillside hues ~
  inner fire of fall

umber oaks shed leaves
 tall forest giants shiver ~
  sleepy acorns doze

fiery scarlet leaves
 sugar maples glow like coals ~
  flurries of orange

fall breeze fantasies
 gold flutters from aspen...

We celebrate her majesty Queen Elizabeth's reign,
Majestically guiding us with excellence.

This year is diamond jubilee,
So fancy and free.

Persons everywhere cheering,
They show they care.

Lunches and socials galore,
Garden parties to adore.

Her model kingdom,
Respected by all.

Viewed on the television,
Received as an excellent passage in history.

Music and song,
Poetry and...

Start with firm heart where mind sees truth,
Intent sets free the best you can;
Note how to start to work sure proof,
Grow then wisely with working plans;
Align true health with steadfast poise,
Plant and sow well the seeds that grow;
Opt to earn wealth with steady choice,
Reap more...

Did you see the Queen on TV
In her red royal robe
And platinum crown?
Maybe you've see her
On a stamp on a letter.
Now sixty years as our Queen
Dedicated she has been.

Join ihn our celebrations,
United as one nation.
Britain sings for the Queen
In villages,cities,towns.
Let festivities surround
Everybody,
Everywhere....

We're all gearing up for the diamond jubilee
Said the bunting waving neighbours smiling with glee
We're all cheering up for the diamond jubilee
Keeping calm and carrying on, truly britishly
We're all working tirelessly for the diamond jubilee
Another priveleged, frivolous squandering of our tax money
Government on high alert...

Remember it just like yesterday 
'Twas the sixth of August, independence day
Manley called the election, Busta took the drive
New nation at UN assembly, Jamaica arrived
Topsy turvy, hurly burly, brick brack, nick nacks
All this wondorous excitement
Ever child get a present
Me get two 'cause my plum friend...

Some sunshine on her special day?
She reigned on her parade anyway,...

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...

Golden Jubilee


Did I go far at 50?
Time flies, now my golden age
So much to ponder on life’s stage
In surging events, I need to stay nifty

Still I cry and laugh
It’s normal for a man’s fight
Heaven still guards my flight
Not rich but blessing pours enough

Younger years just...

Through seventy years of change,
Orb and sceptre in your hands,
Serving your people, young and old,
You have reigned over these lands. 

To duty called when you were young,
You took the oath in Edwards chair. 
The crown sits well upon that head
That doth its precious weight still...
