Forty word version: <br /> <br />The Union flag is flying <br />billowing on the breeze <br />above the beautiful roses <br />and England's old oak trees. <br /> <br />The reign of a royal lifetime <br />Elizabeth has seen it through. <br />Our Queen stands in glory <br />beneath the Red White and Blue.<br /><br />Joyce Hemsley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/queen-elizabeth-ii/
