sunny morning -
the clack clack clack of grackles
threading the wall

Liturgically, the Season of Christmas ends today. AND, here in T&T the Season of Carnival is alive and vibrant; with its soca vibes, mas camps creating costumes, fetes, and competitions, all moving to the days of street parades. Hot days with the warmth of Trinis spicing our Season of Bacchanal.

A happy Season of Carnival to T&T.

    When I visited Texas, I thought the grackles beautiful, though the locals seemed to regard them as pests.
