CARIBANA!
THE STREETS WILL BLAZE
WITH COSTUMED THRONGS
STRUTTING THEIR STUFF
IN A DAZZLING SHOW
AS THE MUSIC AND SONGS
OF SUN-SPLASHED-ISLES
BRING A TROPICAL GLOW
TO OLD TO.
THE CITY WILL SWAY
TO CALYPSO BANDS
WHEN THE CARNIVAL-OF-JOY
FLAUNTS ITS SPARKLING GOWN
AND ITS JOI-DE-VIVRE IN OLD TO
WHEN CARIBANA COMES TO TOWN.

WILLIAM BEDFORD
