My Queen

By L. M. Montgomery

SHE rules a kingdom small and fair, Her throne is but a rocking-chair; Most gracious and beloved is she, With all her subjects at her knee, And never could a monarch view Subjects more loyal or more true.
My little queen with shining eyes, Her rule is tender, firm, and wise; Content and happiness are found Within her tiny realm's bound, And no gemmed circlet can compare With her bright crown of sunny hair.
My little queen, with gentle heart, Within my life she reigns apart; She makes her earthly kingdom dear, And brings the breath of heaven near, With wifely faith, and mother care, My lady of the rocking-chair!
— L. M. Montgomery.
