Thought about this for awhile,
what time period would fit my style?
Renaissance with books and paintings
And castle jesters entertaining.
Russian palaces with diamond gowns,
And for the wealthy, food abound.
Ancient times with jeweled cuffs,
Choosing one might sound tough.
Yet as I truly consider this,
Much of my own time would I miss.
Modern medicines is extensive,
And slavery is found offensive.
Fresh water's available too,
And from the moon we have Earth's view.
Much of the world can read and write;
And, just think of the beautiful sight,
Which can be shared from a photograph,
And preserves where I can see a giraffe.
And I am a woman, this is true,
In past times I'd be a possession to use
For political gain of my father or brother.
No, now is a time unlike any other.
