Yesterday, between the crowds and the whole Mardi Gras scene-
We saw plenty, of purple, gold, and green.

As the Mardi Gras trinkets hit the ground-
No hands were readily found.
.
Only feet to claim, the treasure at hand-
You know the stuff that is at the moment, greatly in demand.
.
For if you were to put your hands down-
A big ouchie, might suddenly be found.
.
A stomp here, and a stomp there-
Something that most don’t do well in or fare.
.
The best way to retrieve the trinkets is by the
sheer luck of in the air, or by the feet-
On Mardi Gras day, right there in the street.
.
As the Mardi Gras trinkets hit the ground-
No hands were readily found.

I saw Granny standing on the side, of the road-
She was at the Mardi Gras parade, and looking to get her a load.
.
The beads were so beautiful, and she did give her best try-
But, for some reason or another, she didn’t get any beads yet,
and didn’t know why.
.
She hollered ‘throw me somethin’ mister’, and that did no good-
She put up her hands, as everyone, at the parade should.
.
She finally gave up and figured that in regards, to any beads,
she would get none-
For she hadn’t acquired one yet, and the parade was about done.
.
She raised her hand up to scratch her head, and out of nowhere-
A gorgeous gold, purple, and green bead wrapped around her pinkie,
right in the midst, of her hair.
.
Granny had finally gotten what she had came for, and she was
so proud-
As she wore her bead, in the midst, of the Mardi Gras crowd.
.
I saw Granny standing on the side, of the road-
She was at the Mardi Gras parade, and looking to get her a load.

1. Prep for Christmas.
2. Prep for Mardi Gras.
3. Certain statues coming down.
=====
Not just on a whim-
But because of the fact,
that they belong in a museum.
