Baraboo & Dells

 Did a midweek trip with friends to Baraboo and the Wisconsin Dells. The perk of being retired is being able to travel during the week when things are quieter. The International Crane Foundation is worth a trip just to see these magnificent birds. Interestingly, I think the same could be said for Dr. Evermor's Sculpture Garden . If you love offbeat this is for you.  Circus World Museum brought back some great memories of childhood, even if I have never enjoyed clowns. A sample of the trip follows.

Melancholy Spreads


I have nothing to offer
no words come that comfort
wave of melancholy spreads
tide on a sandy beach
pick up a shell and listen
your voice is a whisper
soft and receding quickly
sunrise silhouettes ship
steaming away to new ports
I wave but can't see your face
cannot see your tears fall
mix with waves swept to my feet
