She was young, well schooled and travelled
She spoke French and had modern European ways.
All bode well for her until she met Henry and her life unravelled.
She had a book of hours but she became Anne of a thousand days.
She wanted to marry Henry Percy
But without her father’s permission this was not to be.
She was banished to Hever Castle her father showing no mercy.
Her sister was at Henry 8th’s court in fact she she was Henry’s Queen bee.
Henry spotted Anne when she visited her sister Mary
He fell in love with the slip of a girl
She was older but more alluring, out shining poor Mary.
The king was soon entrapped his heart in a whirl.
Soon Henry was a visitor at Heaver Castle
Arriving with his court and entourage, larger by the day .
He courted Anne with all his might, such a rascal
She knew how to keep him keen by not letting him have his way.
Sadly Anne could only produce a daughter
She did her best to keep Henry on her side
No way could Anne produce a son so he sent her to slaughter!
I think Henry loved her , I think for her he cried!
