The Iron Lady Poem by Brian 'Peza' Perrins

We endured the bad times and enjoyed the good
There were times when you were misunderstood

You took charge of a sick and tired Nation
You’re tireless work gave cause for inspiration

As leaders go you must rank amongst the best
Making tough decisions, sometimes hard to digest

You cannot please everyone in this life that’s for sure
But when sick you take medicine, swallow and endure

You’re steely determination and desire to succeed
Led a Nation to stand up for it’s self, never to cede

You’ve left a proud Nation, so strong people follow
By comparison, others find their legacy somewhat hollow

Now that you have left us and your soul does release
From a proud and grateful Nation, Rest In Peace
