<p class="has-drop-cap dropcapp">Poet Laureate Simon Armitage’s heartwarming poem to mark the passing away of Prince Philip has been released on the day of the duke’s funeral in official social media accounts of the Royal family as a tribute to Duke of Edinburgh.</p>



<p>Titled ‘The Patriarchs – An Elegy’, the poem is also Armitage’s first to address the UK royals in his time as a poet laureate and said that the obituaries had taught him that the Duke of Edinburgh “hated sycophancy – I didn’t want to write anything that would have sounded sycophantic in his ears”.</p>



<p>With glimpses of Prince Philip’s extraordinary life as a soldier, husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather, Armitage’s poem opens on a snowy morning. It says, “The weather is a peculiarly British obsession,” said Armitage – and expands into a dedication to the men of Prince Philip’s generation, “great-grandfathers from birth”.</p>



<p class="has-text-align-left"><strong>The Patriarchs – An Elegy</strong></p>



<p class="has-text-align-left has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color dropcapp"><em>The weather in the window this morning<br>is snow, unseasonal singular flakes,<br>a slow winter’s final shiver. On such an occasion<br>to presume to eulogise one man is to pipe up<br>for a whole generation – that crew whose survival<br>was always the stuff of minor miracle,<br>who came ashore in orange-crate coracles,<br>fought ingenious wars, finagled triumphs at sea<br>with flaming decoy boats, and side-stepped torpedoes.</em></p>



<p class="has-text-align-left has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color"><em>Husbands to duty, they unrolled their plans<br>across billiard tables and vehicle bonnets,<br>regrouped at breakfast. What their secrets were<br>was everyone’s guess and nobody’s business.<br>Great-grandfathers from birth, in time they became<br>both inner core and outer case<br>in a family heirloom of nesting dolls.<br>Like evidence of early man their boot-prints stand<br>in the hardened earth of rose-beds and borders.</em></p>



<p class="has-text-align-left has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color"><em>They were sons of a zodiac out of sync<br>with the solar year, but turned their minds<br>to the day’s big science and heavy questions.<br>To study their hands at rest was to picture maps<br>showing hachured valleys and indigo streams, schemes<br>of old campaigns and reconnaissance missions.<br>Last of the great avuncular magicians<br>they kept their best tricks for the grand finale:<br>Disproving Immortality and Disappearing Entirely.</em></p>



<p class="has-text-align-left has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color"><em>The major oaks in the wood start tuning up<br>and skies to come will deliver their tributes.<br>But for now, a cold April’s closing moments<br>parachute slowly home, so by mid-afternoon<br>snow is recast as seed heads and thistledown.</em><em></em></p>
