Whenever you’re in Milwaukee — consider the Cafe at the Plaza a must stop for a great breakfast or lunch experience (always worth the brief wait). Their baked oatmeal rocks (if you enjoy cereals, fruits and nuts).

neither red nor blue

invites both
to mingle and dance

Am I the only one who finds the word “purple” dull and uninteresting. I truly love the word violet and especially “ultraviolet.” It seems totally appropriate sitting on the opposite end of the spectrum from “infrared.” (while ultrapurple simply does not work at all)

Walk among wind and wings

breezes blow.
skippers flit
and flutter within the flow.
the seeker (a photographer)
thinks, ”be still.
the light’s too low.
my shutter too slow.”
