A First Wedding Anniversary

May 19th comes round again
The 20 kms run – in rain
Roads with barriers put in place
«Gay Pride» beams with rainbow face!

I observe the date and then recall
Last year's wedding – Meghan's call
Royal coverage worldwide:
Prince Harry and his Windsor bride.

Since then their union Archie blesses
Gone are the pageant and long dresses
As this new family learns the ropes
Papparazzi-free, one hopes.

Out of the limelight they enjoy
The magic of their little boy
The headlines focus on new prey
So they can have a peaceful day!
