REMEMBRANCE OF CHRISTMAS



On Christmas Eve, we excitedly took a trip to the shopping district. The roads were packed with shoppers and hawkers. There were vendors on both sides of the street making it difficult to walk on the pavement. Firecrackers went off “Bang! Bang!” Whistles and horns blaring in the esthetic Christmas air. They were tons of toys and lots of food for sale.
Of course, one cannot leave out the masquerade dancers they were fun. Accompanied by flute players and drummers making merry music. Joining them was the scary “Mad Bull with his horns and fearsome face. Then there was the Granny long lady on stilts with her face painted white. “Man is fun.” The masquerade dancers and the flouncing musicians singing and chanting ‘Christmas comes but once a year so drinks your rum and tumble down, “Bato, Bato”! Christmas comes but once a year so flounce if you flouncing “Bato, Bato”! Christmas comes but once a year so wine and tumble down on the ground “Bato, Bato”!
Up the road there steel pan players beating out sweet carols at a bouncy calypso beat. In addition, girls and boys, women and men dancing up a storm to the rhythm of Christmas calypso music.
Oh! Boy I love this Christmas season.
I remember Christmas.
