It's the Queen's Birthday

Schools, post offices and many organisations are closed today, 

Congested roads from holiday trips and the kids excited to play, 

It's family time, it's footy time as many will be enjoying this holiday, 

It's the weekend of the snow season, don't ask me where the snow is; 

It's the Queen's Birthday 


Traditionally, many public fireworks were organized on the Queen's Birthday. 

This was part of the celebration and the public display, 

New Year's Eve has taken most of that public display away, 

But hey it's legal today not tomorrow because you know what?  

It's the Queen's Birthday. 


Many would ask why do we celebrate this special day? 

Well Australia is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations I'd say, 

The official head of state is the Monarch of the Realms 'till this day,  

Queen Elizabeth II is in power, highly respected and has a regimented schedule day-to-day. 


It's the Queen's Birthday
