The Queen

[Gordon Yeo]

To borrow from another source, the second Elizabethan Era has ended.

I lowered my maple leaf flag to half mast in acknowledgement. Tomorrow I will join two couples from the neighbourhood, and we will toast to her reign and to the new king. My wife bought a very pricey little bottle of Balmoral single malt scotch at Buckingham palace on one of her trips to UK. It has been in the cupboard waiting for such an occasion. (( Most single malt tastes like cough syrup, so I am going to enjoy the moment and hopefully the whiskey too. ))

I, too, lowered my flag to half staff (mast?)...it is the Union Jack on a 20' pole on my front lawn.

My other flag, the Red Ensign, flies horizontally and cannot, unfortunately, be lowered.

Out of all the Empires that have existed since time immemorial and of all the Monarchs that have ruled over them, how incredibly lucky I am to have lived all my life under the very, very best of them.

That is one beautiful poem Tony.
