The Passing of The Queen

 

Regina Dei Gratia

 

Few constants obtain in our shifting world

And even those few constants must leave us at last

Even as the mists of September obscure

The golden days of a summer now past

 

It is not only the Queen who has passed today

But rather the passing of something in us

Who stand to our duty as she led us to do

Each of us made better because she served

 

God save the Queen

 

God save the King
