THE VIRGIN QUEEN

THE VIRGIN QUEEN

A Poem by LinBin
"

ALSO KNOWN AS QUEEN ELIZABETH THE FIRST....

"

BORN A PRINCESS; DIED A QUEEN; LIVED IN PALACES, LOVED UNSEEN.

 

A VIRGIN? A SCHOLAR, A WOMAN ALONE; A SPINSTER ON THE ENGLISH THRONE.

 

A PROTESTANT, A RULER, A LEADER. A FAN OF THE ARTS; AN AVID READER.

 

A DAUGHTER, A SISTER; NEVER A MOTHER; A FIGHTER, A WRITER BUT NEVER A LOVER

 

WELL VERSED IN ITALIAN, FRENCH & LATIN; AN EDUCATED LADY WRAPPED UP IN SATIN

 

OF QUEEN ELIZABETH THE 1ST; MUCH HAS BEEN SAID BUT DO WE REALLY KNOW   WHAT WENT ON IN HER HEAD?

 

THE ANSWERS LIE SOMEWHERE WE'VE NEVER BEEN;

INSIDE THE MIND OF ENGLANDS VIRGIN QUEEN.
