FUN IN THE SUN
White and frilly, frilly and white;
Monday's costume, come Tuesday,
Will drip with colours, of
Last day excitement, competition,
Frenzy, fanciful and inexorable.
Swaying to rhythms of this kaiso
And that kaiso and yet another,
In the hot, hot, sun;
Which masqueraders have immunity to,
For two whole days.
Ash Wednesday ashes might soothe the soul but,
It never erases the fun of Carnival days.

“Fun is closely related to Joy -- a sort of emotional froth arising from the play of instinct.” ― C.S. Lewis
