Poem by Jane Crossman at Marina Park

Go for a walk, view the lake and read a poem.  What a concept.  How nice to have some of Thunder Bay's best writers as part of the new works of art in the refurbished Marina Park.  Below is the poem by Thunder Bay writer Jane Crossman which can be found on a short stroll along the Sleeping Giant Parkway.

First Sighting
I’ve travelled on foot
from the west
days, weeks, months
over mountains
across plains
through forests
until this sea,
surely a sea
so vast, so extraordinary,
stalls my forward trek.

I shall rest here for a day, a season,
perhaps forever.

~Jane Crossman
Location: Sleeping Giant Parkway
