Who am I? I am a figure from history. 

Marvels of the World I wrote. Fantina, Bellela and Moretta will gloat. These are my three daughters who kept me afloat. They never did accompany me on travels or boat. I saw the Mongol Empire and China too. Recorded my exotic exploits and travels in 1292. My books number over thirty-two. So many to some, but so little to a few. I was a trade, an explorer and writer in my day. Christopher Columbus asked for advice along the way. I met my true love Donata in the month of May. What else could I tell you? What else could I say? I traveled The Silk Road and met Kublai Khan. He got an enormous kick about the road I was on. Some of my original writings are totally gone But some of the stuff is as brilliant as any sweet swan. I only wrote about half of what in my travels I saw. I traveled to China and Japan, and I was totally raw. I drew some pictures, but I do not really cleverly draw. One thing for sure, I stayed on my toes, and was always in awe!
