Reign/Bow



The grey rains as the reign ends.

Above, colours bend -

And a rain of tears begins.

Millions mourn the vacant throne -

Into grief are thrown -

The lowering of our chins.

Rainbows of comforting blooms,

Love from living rooms,

As this saddest Thursday thins.

Reflection disperses shock;

A turn of the clock –

And so new era springs.

We look back with gratitude.

A new attitude,

Together – Long Live the King
