The Diamond Jubilee Poem by Sian Mein

The Diamond Jubilee
Everyone sat at the village hall
What a sight to see
All sat with picnics
Sitting out in the cold
Snuggled up in blankets
Yet the atmosphere never dulled.
Kids on the bouncy castle
As the artists began to play
Buckingham Palace on the big screen
As it had been all of the day
But the music kept on playing
Robbie Williams, Cheryl Cole and many more
All planned by Gary Barlow
When Madness started playing everyone got to the floor
Dancing for hours on end
With big smiles across their face
Later the Queen came on stage
With loud cheers we celebrated Her Grace
60 years since she came to the throne
60 years since she became Queen
Especially after all these years
How tough it must have been
With Prince Phillip in hospital
So on stage they cheered for him too
Her Majesty stood and read a message out
After she had listened to Prince Charles of what they/d been through.
Then out came the diamond to finish off the beacons
After it was placed we all stood proud
And sung the National Anthem
As fireworks exploded all over Stroud.
