The queen has passed on,
Who knows where she has gone?
She has passed into history,
The rest is all a mystery,
She straddled the scene for seventy years,
She presided over her people’s joys and fears,
She was the very epitome of royal grace,
In her deportment you could hardly any blemish trace,
As she clung to the last vestiges of royalty,
She got her subjects’ due deference and loyalty,
As for long she presided over the commonwealth’s fate,
Her heir apparent had to cool his heels and wait,
Now that he has been anointed as the king,
The time has come for his dreams and aspirations to take wing!
This is how chugs along life’s train,
Some passengers get on board while others bow out and detrain!
