A Tribute to Diana Princess of Wales

        A shy young girl of nineteen, first came to our attention         Lady Diana Spencer, was the name, we all would mention         Cameras clicked throughout the world, as she walked with grace and pride         Down Saint Paul's Cathedral aisle, to become Prince Charles's bride         Princess Di, soon gave birth, to a royal heir         Prince William came into the world, in her happiness we would share         A royal tour "Down Under", the people loved this royal lady         She earned our deep respect, when she brought along her baby         Another son, Prince Harry, made her life complete         Now it seemed she had it all, the world lay at her feet         Soon the pressures of a public life, in the Royal Family         A marriage made in heaven, just wasn't meant to be         Prince Charles and Princess Diana, both went their seperate ways         Sadness seemed to fill her life, and number all her days         The "Queen of Hearts", they named her, for those not as fortunate as she         A Smile, A Cuddle, or Gentle Touch, her time and energy         On a tragic night in Paris, in August 1997         Princess Di left us all, to be with God in heaven         No more will all the cameras, flash on her lovely face         She is finally now at peace, in a much happier place         Our prayers are for Prince William and Prince Harry, her two sons         The world has lost a fine Princess, but they have lost their Mum.

I have noticed that sometimes words in Australia are spelt differently than those in America.
