King Richard

Are you watching dear William?
Are you watching Tudors all?
As the last Plantagenet is gently laid to rest
After Bosworth and your prompting conspired to make his fall?
From Fotheringhay to York, from Gloucester to battle site
People watch and wait to see the banner fly,
Yorkists and Lancastrians, roses side by side reposing in one night.
This son of York at last at peace and glorious summer will follow spring
And past tyrannies and grotesque dramas on both sides today forgotten
God Save Richard, God Save the long lost King.
