A pretty little cap. By Amalia "Amy" Zents

You may hear me recite this poem at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=et6Bu4I2Jmw

"A pretty little cap."
Those words caught my fancy.
As I perused an antiquated lady's fashion
journal
A pretty little cap, from 1832
Made of black velvet and gold trim,
With two white feathers adorning it.
I thought of how I'd look beneath it's brim
I would smile with delight as I put it on,
Thinking how lovely it made me feel
A pretty little cap
Staring at it on my head
In the windows I passed, on my way to meet him.
A pretty little cap;
A lovely adornment,
A pretty little cap to make history in!
