Based on actual facts _ Abdicated king Edward and his American divorcee Wallace Simpson.

                     KILLING HER SOFTLY WITH HIS LOVE

He ~ in his mighty castle

Her - in her commoner's domain.

The love they shared will always remain.

The King and the commoner <<< >>> never the twain.

for as the rule of country had it he must never follow his heart.

He ~ due to wear his crown ~ must play the part.

He saw promise in her, right from the start

There was a simplicity that came from within ...

A 'Lady' who knew her worth.

She came. She saw. She conquered ...

the heart of a gentle, loving would be king.

Abdication should not be an attribute of

gentry with standards to meet.

Should she now accept the outcome and quietly 

                      fade away?

but no, he stood his ground, he did his thing ...

turned his back on the right to be king >>>

             he duly gave her that ring!

[Gee]

I'm with you Stella, Charles should have married for the right reasons and also a lady he loved.
Enjoyed reading this

But would he have had the two lovely boys that are fit to be kings following what their mother has done to prove that Royals can be human, given the chance.

He did what was right for him, it is a shame that Charles did not follow his example for neither lady would be a suitable queen in the hearts of the people.Our present gracious queen would be a hard act to follow.
