Queen Kellita and her Hot Pink Feathers contingent celebrated their 10th SF Carnaval and perhaps their last. <a href="http://www.carnaval.com/sf08/queen/" rel="nofollow">www.carnaval.com/sf08/queen/</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjyTeRVMPvU&index=16&list=PLDT6mQygNPXdstYRAYf20v-f_Z-f9KfPz" rel="nofollow">www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjyTeRVMPvU&index=16&list...</a> MORE ABOUT THE LADIES of TURQUOISE The 2015 Carnaval parade theme of "Sacred Waters" inspired a great display of blue green costumes in tribute to Imanja the Afro Brazilian & Caribbean Goddess of the Waters. The Empress of the Americas, the Lady of Guadeloupe, who still remains the most familiar goddess image in the Inner Mission [ www,sfMission.com ] is often recognized by her radiant Turquoise shawl. ISIS, as the Egyptian cross-cultural goddess of many names, best known as adopted by Christianity's Virgin Mary is hereby invoked so we may hope to unleash the tripartite power of the Triple Goddess on our interesting times. The prose under most Flickr captions for the first half of this 2015 Carnaval SF parade owes a debt to poet Lou Schreiberg whose full work appears below Lady of Turquoise The turquoise trolley paused at the Gate of the Gods. I breathlessly alit to greet my ever love, my Lady of Turquoise. The majesty of Diana whose ever flexed bow did pass glistened of opal and emerald and charmed our souls, every step a passionate stride, to warm the cockles of our insides. It was Spring, in the midst of the Ides and no way never, never ever did we look away. Rather we chose to watch the stars prance as Pan and thrilled to the trill of his enveloping flute. That day, Mt. Olympus was my home. Reminds Juliet, * 'What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.' My Lady of Turquoise, my rose, was that kind of magic. Indeed, sorcery worthy of Merlin, a name, an aura befitting Olympus, our Olympus of story, an Avalon of timeless glory, a moment in time, if only for the moment. Never, never, not ever anew, not even a winsome glance or two. Spring among the Gods and the season of Turquoise and each roaring step of the mighty Zeus, Hera bejeweled matched by my Lady of Turquoise doth pass, yea, ne'er passed by eyes of my own with fondness regale of that goddess of mine, My Lady of Turquoise and my one day home. 2015 GRAND PARADE COMPARSAS (In Parade Order) 1.
