Mardi Gras’ Masquerade

This is Mardi Gras, the dainty, little Papillon who. belongs to my dearest friends, Dick & Marilyn Hill.

Mardi Gras’ Masquerade,  oh my, he’s such a joy…

Mardi Gras, “jumping for joy!”

Mardi Gras’ masquerade,

oh my, he’s such a joy.

He’s quiet-natured, but don’t be fooled;

’cause he’s also a swift and sly boy!

Mardi Gras’ butterfly ears and beads.

A Papillon this dainty dog is,

his ears are butterfly shaped.

He’s light on his feet and so hard to catch,

sometimes though, he’s only narrowly escaped.

“Okay, I’m ready for my picture to be taken, please!”

Mardis Gras’ masquerade,

He loves to dress up in his clothes.

You’d swear there is royalty in his blood,

for he’s so graceful from his head to his toes.

“Catch me if you can!”

He loves to dart around the yard,

he’ll give his siblings a run for their money.

But when he’s nestled down for an afternoon nap,

well, Mardi Gras is just as sweet as honey!

“Yawn!…nite, nite.”
