~doggy gras

comedy

 

 

So here we are ..  Carnival season has come round again

  Balls and beautiful dresses, king cake and masks

advertisements for people to ride on floats,

  Or walk alongside Chewbacchus…

   My love and I were looking forward to Krewe of Barkus

 

We will dress in velvet skirts,

       purple, gold and green

   hoping for parking spaces, as parades serpentine

crawling through the streets

while friends with tickets and invitations to parties and parades, and balls….

      are diligently solicited and highly sought

  

 

We shall carry our dachshund in a feather boa

   blue eye shadow and sparkly stuff along a long dachshund spine

    

       deep blue matches dachshund eyes,

        purple sparkles for his nose

 

  

   He whispered that he promises to be magical

  along with all the sparkle and lights of Carnival

  

In dogspeak he promised, in a low voice,

 

 

    "I will become a glowing jellyfish coach with golden wheels

   whisking you away to the parades and balls and KingCake meals"

  

 but he stipulated,,,,

 

   at midnight he would turn into a purple and gold pumpkin

      

Leaving me in awe at the prospect of doggy gras

    even a dachshund is a mystery during the season of Carnival…
