I was raised on a farm,
Woke up at dawn.
There was no alarm,
Those days are long gone.
I then moved to town,
Afraid of the traffic.
People all around,
Theaters were fantastic.
I worked for a designer
Who created great clothes.
None were there finer,
Though I couldn't afford those.
So I sewed my own,
Like my mother taught me,
A blue satin gown,
Pretty as could be.
I placed it on the rack
There was nowhere to go
Someone brought it back
The label didn't show.
I travelled on trains,
On buses, too,
Through snow and rain,
Deciding what to do.
Attended school here
Worked sometimes frantic,
Often studied there
Music was fantastic.
I think it is great
To work where I like
And sometimes create
Or ride on my bike.
Where do I work?
What do you see?
Every day is new,
I like to just be.
