"Victorian Era"
Oh! How grand it must have been
To have
existed in "Victorian Days"
The fancy apparel . . . Way
back then
So grandiose, with flaunting ways
Queen Victoria, who set the trend
In finery,
was she always dressed
So style conscious, until the
end
Her seamstress, getting no rest
Riding
or outings, the ladies wore
Their "Cloaks" and
"Redengotes"
Victorian style, with fanciness galore
Be it for parties, or traveling boats
Dainty
slippers, with pretty flowers
Accessories in purple
and red
In quaint shops, searching for hours
Long skirt, or shorter instead?
Pretty
accessories, made with fur
Colorful Shawls, that
were so chic
Careful of.... Every bloke or cur
Affluent men, their only pick
New Industry,
was in the making
Rails ... being laid everywhere
So much money, for the taking
Affording women,
to dress with flair
That Era... Ever so
fascinating
Flaunting all it's beauty and charm
The rush, at times so exasperating
Prestige and
class, arm and arm!
