A Nation Mourns
Feelings of sadness and loss,
Uniting the nation as one,
Crown bearer for 70 years,
King Charles III is her son.
Time has stood still a fortnight,
Handkerchiefs occupied our hands,
Every great action she performed,
Quietly remembered in these lands.
Under her glorious reign we prospered,
Each man and woman rejoice,
Elizabeth II our best monarch,
Never did we need a choice.
About this poem
This is my tribute to the greatest monarch to have existed in modern times.
