When I dream,
I go to a place,
where I came,

A place in time,
long ago,
when ladies,

Where ladies,
and gentlemen,
where gentlemen,

Where love notes,
love letters,
where hand written,

Sent with scents,
of deepest devotion,
love so true,

Days of ballroom,
dress and dances,
mystery and mystique,

        

Carriage rides,
hearing the trots,
of horse hoofs,

Upon cobblestone roads,
white picket fences,
with gardens of roses.

A time of poetrys finest,
reading, tea,
a time of no distractions,

Modesty was the fashion,
classiness, with manners,
proper speech.

I will continue dreaming,
until I am there once more,
where I belong,

Those lovely Victorian
memories, keep calling,
me back time after time.

well really I wasn't asking twice, just thinking about another time period, other than the Victorian Era.

You reply got me to thinking, about times we as a nation could change our mistakes etc.
