Widow’s Walk
Dating back to the early 19th Century, A widow's walk was a platform built on seaside housetops where wives of sailing men could look out to the ocean for their husband’s ship as it sailed from, and back to port. Oftentimes it became a place of sadness and mourning when their sailors never returned, as many a ship went down at sea in those days. Hence the name Widow's Walk. This is one of my favorite co-writes with good friend Rich Schleckser.
