And I want to go back - and I will.”
This is a poem about Alaska, once known as Seward‘s Folly.

#photoadaynov16 There was a time when no Canadian kid made it through school without learning a verse or two of The Cremation of Sam McGee. My father's favorite poet, and one of mine too. #chillyreads @RealLifeReading
