Queen to nobody


Who was The Queen to nobody
A nobody like me?
I never met her in real life
Just saw her on TV
Too young to get a telegram
Our paths never to cross
But though we knew each other not
I feel so deep her loss
Like most, for my entire life
A constant presence, there
Our symbol for the world to see
She ruled with grace and care
Quintessentially British
Celebrated with pride
Queen Elizabeth the Second
Our ever constant guide
A force for good for all the world
Much did she see and do
Long did you reign, Your Majesty
For all your time, thank you
There will never be another
Like you were on the throne
We wish you Godspeed to Philip
Together not alone
Forever in your Nation’s heart
Right where you’ve always been
You’ll be remembered for all time
God rest our gracious Queen.
