Before She Was Queen
A Tribute to Queen Elizabeth the Second
Before she was queen
She was a little girl
With little girl dreams
A well known face
Born into royalty
But there was something
Deeper too
A passion for the people.
Before she was queen
She played as little girls do
Learned and grew
As little girls do
Experienced life’s
Joys and pains.
Before she was a queen
She was a daughter
A granddaughter
Sister and cousin
Spending time with
Family
Whispering girlhood
Dreams.
Before she was queen
She stood up
And stood out
A woman of her
Time
And ahead of
Her time,
Her majesty
A Princess
Before a queen.
She stood out
Found her place
Showed the world
Beauty and grace.
