Haiku Tuesday - Mardi Gras Edition

Fat Tuesday is here

Wish I was in New Orleans

Celebrating it.

But all is not lost

I'll be at the Yellow Plum

Eating and drinking.

What's the Yellow Plum?

Ah, well you may be asking

It's a restaurant.

Tonight they will have

Gumbo and jambalaya

And red beans and rice.

I'm sure there will be

Hurricanes and Sazeracs

To wash it all down.

For dessert, beignets;

Whatever else would you have?

On such a fine night.

I must get ready

My friend is picking me up

I must find my beads.
