And Now, King Charles III.
Long live the King!
May 6th, 2023.
Westminster Abbey.
The Robe was heavy
Upon donning.
The Crown a thought
Upon the mind.
Leaving all commonplace behind.
It’s duty, long awaited
Commonwealth contemplated.
And in His Mother’s fine style.
Knowing when to smile.
To speak.
To pray.
To say a word
To little ones.
They never forget the Day.
The pomp and colour.
Archbishop right on cue.
The resonance a-booming.
No evil thing looming.
Truth, power,mercy, equity
Assuming.
Amen.
