Earlier I watched dark clouds gather across the sky, Layer upon layer of thick darkness hung low and foreboding like it knew something I wasn’t yet privy to… I went about my usual business, And i wished I could say that I had felt any sort of premonition, that I known what was about to come amongst us and change our world forever, but though an announcement had been made around lunchtime of our Queens ill health, Still like we all do with a most loved relative,you hope above hope they will pull though, that some miracle takes place.
At around 6ish the sky grew even darker, an unearthly hush fell around us, no birds sang, childrens voices became unnaturally quiet, even local dogs for once lay silent, And as I learnt of our Queens death, the sky opened up, almost as if too wanted to mourn, lightning streaked the sky and thunder growled low and deep,We are Some hours on and still the world holds her breath as England gets to grips with being Orphaned, we have lost not just our Monarch but a much loved Mother, Our Mother…
And it’s as if none of us knows quite what to say or do now, how does one react, make peace with such a loss?, the Guider of our ship has left us adrift, And as England Grieves for its Parent, I hope it unites her people, for at least there something good will be born out of this sad day..there’s few times of late being British makes me proud, but we have had 70 years of one of the longest reigning, hardest working Monarchs of all time, of that I’m deeply proud, today is one sad day for England and moreover the world.. My thoughts go out to the Queens family and loved ones, Long may she rest at the side of her beloved Husband Philip, God bless our Queen, And long live our new King….Much love to you all ❤🌹❤
