Sea Chantey



Calling all Sailors! From across the waters of the world comes the Song… You must listen very carefully, because it runs so quietly through the seashell of the ear and brain.



It is the Song of those who share our nature and the sea-salt composition of warm blood. Its soft, plaintive undercurrent is difficult to detect over the din and cacophony of embarkations and arrivals, the tapping-out of messages, the ringing-in of profits, assurances of security, in boardrooms and banks, and over the ticking of omnipresent Clocks.



Navigate with mindfulness of the kith-and-kindred nature of what sails alongside of you, unseen but always there.
