I too am in the hopes that this new Harbor Walk will bring tourists to our city. I love Gloucester and I know it has a future , not only by those we elect to serve , but also the youth that we so well educate. I only regret that I was not of that education , but I tank God for being self raised by the people and the leaders of our yesterdays. I submit the following
Gloucester’s Edge
By Peter A. Todd
Sitting and admiring our inner harbor
I can vision the Fishermen of Gloucester’s past
Names that are now etched at the harbors edge
Of the Fisherman’s statue in sunlight cast
Our harbor embraced by the colors of our nation
With the many flags that stand along its rails
This our Island of Gloucester God’s gift of creation
With its Fishing boats and Schooners at full sail
Street lights that mirror years long ago
Tourists and City folk strolling on by
Dogs of all breeds chasing at their owners heels
Under God’s sky of blue and cotton puffed skies
Its walkway filled with statues of marble and stone
Of the our heritage of our hero’s of yesterday
Fishermen and soldiers who made Gloucester their home
Now a place for adults to enjoy and children to play
With this new walk which will help visitors know
Of the History of our Fishermen of today and our past
To be able to walk through the imprints of time that will show
How the Heritage of one of the worlds famous Fishing ports is so vast

Keep the city in motion. To paraphrase the old basketball coaches “the worst decision to make when you get the ball is to do nothing” Keep us in motion.
