A Little Princess at Glamis

✦

High on a Scottish hill
stood Glamis Castle.

Inside, on a stormy night,
a baby girl was born.

They named her Margaret Rose.
A tiny princess,
full of song and mischief.

She had a big sister,
Elizabeth, whom she loved.
Together they laughed and played.

The whole family adored
their lively little girl.

A Castle on the Hill

✦

Margaret loved her home.
The great stone halls.
The soft green hills.

She watched the clouds
roll over the mountains.

Everything felt like magic.
Every room held a secret.

She hummed little tunes
and made them up herself.

She danced down the corridors
in her buckled shoes.

The world was wide
and full of wonder.

Two Little Sisters

✦

Margaret and Elizabeth
were the best of friends.

They shared their lessons
in a cosy schoolroom.

Margaret loved music most.
She played the piano
for hours and hours.

Her fingers found the keys
as if by magic.

She learned new songs,
new dances, new jokes.

Always curious, always giggling,
she filled the palace
with happy sound.

Growing Up in the Spotlight

✦

Then everything changed.
Margaret's father became king.

The family moved
to a great big palace.

Now people watched Margaret
wherever she went.

Soon a war came.
The sisters lived at Windsor.

It was frightening and hard.
But Margaret stayed brave.

She sang for the soldiers
and kept the spirits bright.

Even in dark times,
she found a little light.

If Margaret Were 10 Today

✦

on a keyboard in her room.

And she would still be
herself, bright and free.
