Phillip came to me today,
and said it was time to go.
I looked at him and smiled,
as i whispered that "I know"

I then turned and looked behind me,
and seen I was asleep.
All my Family were around me,
and I could hear them weep.

I gently touched each shoulder,
with Phillip by my side.
Then I turned away and walked,
with My Angel guide.

Phillip held my hand,
as he lead the way,
to a world where King's and Queens,
are Monarch's every day.

I was given a crown to wear
or a Halo known by some.
The difference is up here,
they are worn by everyone.

I felt a sense of peace,
my reign had seen its end.
70 years I had served my Country,
as the peoples friend.

Thank you for the years,
for all your time and love.
Now I am one of two again,
in our Palace up above.

Rest in peace Ma’am

Thank you so much for this beautiful poem, @Trila! I also was inspired to write one but I've been too busy crying.

I love the besotted look on the gunner's face. I think he really loves his Queen.

Trila, this poem has brought me quite undone, but thank you for posting it.
 
My Grandmother adored Her Majesty, the Queen. She would always talk about how feminine and lady-like she was. Years ago, we were watching something British on TV and they showed her sitting in a horse drawn carriage and my Grandmother made the comment that she wondered why more Brit women didn't attempt to emulate her femininity. I would tell her that these are changing times and the young people today don't see the need for all the glitz and glory as they once did. But, nonetheless, it was always a pleasure to watch the Queen on TV and if she would make a few comments about something non political, she always had such nice things to say about so many people. I never heard her say anything bad about anyone. She was almost perfect, or at least, as perfect as one person could be.

Thought about this a bit and realized she became Queen before I was born, that is impressive. I was always interested in her WWII stories, being an army mechanic especially.

Don't really get the whole powerless royalty thing, but I know a lot of people, particularly in the UK do, so to those folks sorry for your loss.

Sad when someone like this I have known about all my life passes.

It had the same affect on me! 😢. It took me about a half hour of searching online, to find a version that I was able to copy & paste....I thought it was worth it.

I did not write this, but when I saw it (on FB), it moved me enough to share with everyone.

What a wonderful fulfilling life you led, dear Queen. May your service be a legacy that lasts forever.

Never complain, never explain, I believe was your motto. Despite the terrible void in your life this past year, you continued steadfastly. Rest in peace. You will always be remembered fondly by the masses.
