Writing - Thank you Maggie

 Dame Maggie Smith died 27/09/2024 aged 89 years. 



Maggie Smith 

Royalty of stage and screen, 

an amazingly talented acting queen, 

she entertained millions throughout my journey, 

in a myriad of roles with consummate ability. 




Exhibiting acerbic wit and even magical powers, 

Maggie entertained us for hours and hours, 

but now her earthly journey is done, 

we will be subjected to hours of fun, 

watching reruns of films she has done.
