The Jealous Sea

"Sunsets, seashells, sands and dunes,
Salt air, soft hair, ocean moons,
She cares, we share, the sea and I..."

Welcome to The Jealous Sea, a cyber-rendering of a little collection of original song lyrics and line drawings I had put together when I was a kid. Many years have passed; the story is "...pressed between the pages of our book of memories," but the songs seem to continue to move people, and I have been encouraged to pursue the creation of this cyber-"sandbox", as one friend called it.

In addition to the lyrics and illustrations of the original book, I have also included here a seascapes Gallery, and audio streams of The Jealous Sea, each section, and each song, on their respective pages, as well as streams and downloads available on the Music page.

I dedicate this effort to my wife, Judy, a true "...daughter of the sand and foam," who is always a source of inspiration and encouragement to me.

Hope You enjoy your visit. Please take a moment to sign the Guestbook, and leave a comment.

I hope you feel inspired to stop by and visit again.
