“Take me back to the ole time days of fine French masquerade balls, when mass was a classy affair, when mystery alone an ole French charm made Carnival blissful joy. Take me back to when pan was sweet too bad and the tempo made me sway. Take me back to the precious old-time memories when life was simply Joie De Vivre.”

This piece was inspired by the history of Carnival in Trinidad: French colonizers were responsible for bringing Carnival festivities to the island. Once an elaborate affair only meant for the whites, Carnival has become an integral part of Trinidad’s culture.
