Abdication

What
Did
It
Mean
To
Be
The
Queen,
Fixed
Symbol
To
Each
And
All?
To
Finally,
With
Grace,
Lay
The
Burden
To
Rest,
After
Decades
Of
Doing
One’s
Best,
Discard
The
Crown
And
Travel
To
Death’s
Silent
Town.
Those
Left
Behind
Will
Bear
The
Grief,
But
Perhaps
She
Would
Count
It
A
Great
Relief,
Aboard
A
Shadowed
Funeral
Boat,
At
Last,
No
One
Of
Note.
