On the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 11
==============================
Not Pro, not anti
just accepting
getting on with my own life
until, with the closing of your life
I am suddenly made aware
that for goodness knows how long
there had lain, deep inside of me
a strange, quiet love.
A love ever present
but never actually felt
or expressed,
never acknowledged
never enjoyed.
Now the object of love is gone
and a strange emptiness invades
and for a little while I wept
waiting to say "Farewell!"
