Crown of Germany's Grand Duchess
I had never seen such a regal crown
It was sparkling full of jewels
Looked like it was freshly polished
It belonged to the Grand Duchess grandpa said
Auguste Victoria, German’s finest queenly monarch
I could tell that he had been smitten
How did we get it, Grandpa?
My great-great-grandfather would never tell he said.
We smiled at each other, knowing our family well.
Most of us are popular extraverts, adored by many.
Just be yourself, he said. Great things will happen.
And of course, he was right, and they did.
