**The QUEEN is in the HOUSE**

Queen Elizabeth II
A super hero coin legend,
I wonder who's kissing a$$ during an open Parliament.
London should have a law called "THE PAPARAZZI PUNISHMENT." 

**GANDHI the GURU**

Gandhi,
The inspirational force vigilante,
Ignited some wisdom in today's philosophy.
He should have won a hunger trophy. 

**RONALD REAGAN meets RONALD McDonald's** 

Ronald Reagan,
White House celebration,
A man of bravery and stronghold, 
I wonder if heaven has a McDonald?

**BILL CLINTON MAN of THE YEAR**

Bill Clinton,
Made presidency lots of fun,
Why did Monica ruin it for him?
Did Hillary, really forgive him?

**CLEOPATRA the GREAT**

Cleopatra,
All she had to say was abracadabra,
Do you think we would reinvent her story?
If Viagra was invented back in history?

Reining in jet-black steed;
Rangle for her falcon.
Repugnant mudslinging, 
Risible in content,
Rankled those in the know.
Recent loss of soulmate; 
Ravens smudge the teal sky.

Premium Member Hrh Queen Elizabeth Ii Rip

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 to ever have served 
Mourning across the world will be observed

A Queen, a monarch and a mother of four
The only Queen to do your bit during the war
A granny of 8 and gan gan of 12
Being a great monarch you did delve

Born Elizabeth Alexandra Mary in April 26
To Prince Albert who became George VI
No-one knew you would become Queen
The first decade of life being pristine

In 1936 uncle Edward abdicated the crown
Your whole world just turned upside down 
Your first radio broadcast at the age of 14
"God will care for us and give us victory"

Your first inspection of troops in 1942
Pragmatic and kind but that's what you do
In 1945 you did your bit for the war effort
Joining the ATS as a mechanic and driving expert

In 47 you married your childhood sweetheart
Very seldom was it you were ever apart
Your true resilience again was shown
As you collected fabric coupons for your gown

In 1948 your first son charles was born 
Then came Anne whom I've met on the lawn
Ten year later Andrew did come 
Two years later Edward your youngest son

In  February 52 your father did pass
You became Queen as a 24 year old lass
June 53 the your coronation year
First one broadcasted caused many a tear

In the 70 years you did so much
The commonwealth you kept in touch
Your political views almost always hidden
Even recently meeting president Bidden

Stiff upper lip and done what's right
Keeping the family together a real fight
You are now on your final journey
Together forever with Philip and  corgis

You will be missed as Commander in Chief
I thought this poem was going to be brief
From all your citizens on all your land
We shout out loud Liz was grand

R.I.P your Majesty
God's Speed
Forever eternity.

Premium Member Thank You Ma'Am - In Memoriam Queen Elizabeth II

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 sweet—your compassion, not beat.
You’re honoured as a national treasure,
never resorting to artful pressure: 
Deus ex machine per Measure for Measure.
You danced with those freed—gifted a French Guard stead.
You have lived by a creed—example to us indeed.
Remembered as beloved mother and wife,
seventy years on the throne: quite a feat.
There’s no more need of any embrasure.
For your esteemed family, hearts now bleed.

Poetic form: Suzette sonnet.
The title of the poem refers to Paddington Bear saying ' Thank you Ma'am ... for everything...' when he 'took tea' with HRH in celebration of the Planinum Jubelee in June 2022.

Premium Member The Value of Royalty

Having lived nearly three score and ten
these years have known of evidence royal
for all my days Queen Elizabeth II reigned
now passed to glory her majesty so loyal

Looking back on these memorable years
so much to be thankful and very glad
having watched the coronation on tv
great memories to recall when I was a lad

This royal reign brought stability upfront
despite many ups and downs through the years
the Queen was faithful to her high duty
a people's inspiration amidst our fears

The commonwealth increased in unity
drawing great strength from each other
so many both young and old so inspired
were constantly renewed to go even further

Her Majesty was a lady of faith
belief in God so personally true
here is evidence of the values of royalty
those that deny all this have no clue!

Premium Member Queen Elizabeth

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 Him set apart
not bound by duty on your own,
but strengthened firm and from His heart
to bear your heavy crown. 

We shall not see your like again
defender of the faith,
who served your God through every strain
and subjects here beneath.
God helped you keep your solemn vow,
God saved our gracious queen.
God keep you in our hearts as now,
and after you have been.

The Tudor Rose, the Lion and the Sceptre of Light

"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 never easy
when grief is the price
we pay for love 

duty bound 

for Love, 
of Her dominion 
and Her people

Lion and Lamb
above all others,
at all cost, to self

constant Her 
selfless shield of duty,
brave royal heart

arms never folding
outstretched
open wide apart

dieu et mon droit
"God and my right"
before Life, it starts
 
God bless 
The Queen,
a life long lived

walking towards
Her sovereign,
now in sight

calls to Her 
as if She 
were a child, 

halo crown
sceptre of Light
The Lion passant

her mighty Sovereign,
King and Lord,
now in her sight

(LadyLabyrinth / 2022)
Queen Elizabeth II
(b. 21.4.26 - d. 8.9.22, 96Yrs)

"Grief is the price we pay for love."

                                    _Queen Elizabeth II
 
there is a dagger in my heart ever twisting, twisting
        and storms shake the ocean of my sleep
         and old memories bring me weeping
each time I think of the memories and the beauty
                      of the love lost to death for eternity 
I saw them all last night when dreaming
          and in my dream I was grieving, grieving, grieving
life has lost a lot of sweetness and harmony
                 because of that twisting, twisting dagger
 beloved that have gone above always come creeping
            I can hear mom's sweet laughter like music
         and dad is watching me so sadly
  I feel grandma's gentle touch upon my cheek
              and see my sisters hair a dark flowing river
                  and recall my brothers grand dreams 
     my baby is crying, crying, crying mournfully
and my husband is waving goodbye
                  oh, twisting, twisting dagger
    leaving scars on my soul
              and the clouds sail across the dawn sky
   and I wake up as threads of my dream begin to fade
and petals of a wilted rose on my beside table
                             . . .  fall

"I love this poem that I have penned so much, although quite sad 
with grief, it is my soul;  I carry my grief with me, I am never
without it: and oddly it has made me the poet I am. " _Constance

Premium Member Queen Elizabeth Ii

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 years, she was the Queen,
and a sister, daughter, mum, and wife.
Amazing what this lady would mean
to post-war Britain's foothold on life.

She guided with her feminine hands
never shirked her nation's duty call.
Tiny monarch ruling many lands.
She rose to be one-hundred feet tall!

HRH Queen Elizabeth II

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 you will find me ..
Looking up towards the morning sun , shimmers the glimmers of hope , the breath of love upon the waters and I hear a wish from a fishermans boat. 
We dance upon a dream
Flutter amongst the clouds
Our  thoughts  in peace and prayer
We sing a song serene out loud 
Spellbound on the lochs of Bonnie Wee  Scotland
My home 
My heart  
My written letters 
Always and Forever 

Amen
