Hertfordshire’s Book of Remembrance for
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II

OUR QUEEN Written by myself I WOKE UP THIS MORNING WITH MY HEAD ON THE FLOOR AND TEARS IN MY EYES LIKE NEVER BEFORE, OUR COUNTRY AWAKENED WITH SUCH SADNESS AND GRIEF OUR RED ROSE HAS BEEN TAKEN,WE ARE ALL IN DISBELIEF. OUR RED ROSE OUR QUEEN FOR OVER 70 YEARS, HAS NOW GONE TO HEAVEN AND WE ARE IN TEARS. MY QUEEN AND MY COUNTRY ARE ALL ON THE FLOOR WE HAVE LOST OUR RED ROSE OUR STRENGTH TO THE CORE. ELIZABETH THE 2ND YOU DID OUR COUNTRY SO PROUD,YOU GAVE US A BELIEF WHEN WE HAVE ALL,FELT DOWN. THE COUNTRY IS DEVASTATED OUR QUEEN IS NO MORE,BUT THIS IS GREAT BRITAIN I DONT HAVE TO SAY, ANYMORE. SO YOU ARE NOW WITH THE ANGELS AND PHILLIP ONCE MORE, AND WE WILL MISS YOU DEEPLY THE COUNTRY AND MORE. THERE IS ONE THING I WILL SAY THAT MAKES ME FEEL SO SAD,I WILL NOT HEAR YOUR WORDS THAT I HAVE LISTENED AND BEEN SO PROUD, THAT DAY IS SO SPECIAL IT HOLDS A PLACE IN MY HEART YOUR SPEECH AT THE TABLE WILL NOW BREAK MY HEART. AT 3 PM ON DECEMBER THE 25TH THIS YEAR, I WILL RAISE A GLASS WITH MY FAMILY AND SHED A FEW TEARS, I WILL LISTEN TO A NEW ERA THE KINGS SPEECH AND ALL, BUT IT WONT BE THE SAME,BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT HERE. OUR RED ROSE HAS GONE BUT NEVER FEAR,SHE WILL BE WITH ME FOREVER LIKE MY FAMILY SO DEAR. SO WHEN YOU FINISH YOUR DAY TODAY PLEASE GIVE HER A CHEER,PLEASE RAISE A GLASS FOR OUR QUEEN WHO WE WILL MISS SO DEAR. My poem for the Passing of our gracious Queen.... Collapse
