The whole of England has turned out,
on this beautifully clear day.
To watch the archbishop,
place the crown of King George on her head.
In her chest her heart is pounding,
still unable to believe that the day was here.
So many times she'd been unsure if it would come,
so many nights she'd cried herself to sleep.
She tried not to think of those years,
and focus on the memory of her mother.
A smile forms on her lips as she walks forward,
Her dreams about to unfold into reality.
She sits down on the throne,
and looking out at the people of England.
They are cheering for Katherine of Aragon's heir,
"Long live Queen Mary Tudor!"
