Mardi Gras Masquerade

Unlike their country cousins,
Who modestly cover their limbs
With cloaks of Spanish moss,
Our brazen oaks line the Avenue,
Bedecked with shiny beads,
Chronicling Carnival’s festive nights,
Eagerly waiting, limbs outstretched,
Dressed for the next parade.

Happy Mardi Gras 2010!

The most beautiful and profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical.
- Albert Einstein
