Spirituality Information - Journey In The Fields Of Forever ( Part 40)
During this period I was scheduled to attend a business conference at a luxurious location very similar to where I now found myself. My hotel room was much like this one, opening onto a balcony separated only by a panorama of glass. I had ventured out onto the balcony and draped myself over the rail, looking toward the sea. The beauty of the scene was so overpowering that I absent-mindedly started humming an old tune.
Suddenly, a voice to my right said, ?Intriguing melody. What?s it called?? It was the occupant of the adjoining room. I hadn?t noticed her and wondered how long she?d been standing there. I stared at this smiling Aphrodite and wondered who she was and what she was doing there. ?Hope you don?t mind,? she continued, ?couldn?t help overhearing ? sounded lovely . . . somewhat makes you want to travel beyond the farthest star.?
?Don?t mind at all,? I replied,?it?s called,?Somewhere Out There.? Written by a fellow named Henry Herbert Knibbs in his ?Songs of the Outlands.? I?ve always loved it.? ?Oh, by the way, I?m Kimberly. My friends call me Kim,? she said as an introduction.
?I am John,? I replied, ?good to meet you.?
?Same here John,? she said and as an afterthought continued,?Do you know the words to that tune, a verse or two, maybe??
?It?s more poetry than song,? I said. ?Here?s a verse for you, if my memory serves me right.?
I looked out to sea. The warm winds, the gulls? cry, the swaying palms, the distant sails of a ship and a beautiful woman made the words spring to life . . .
I?ll dance a merry saraband from here to drowsy Samarcand;
Along the sea, across the land, the birds are flying south. And you, my sweet Penelope, out there some- where you wait for me.
With buds of roses in your hair and kisses in your mouth.
?Well, I?ve got to go now,? she said, ?give my regards to Knibbs. See you out there somewhere,? as she waved and retreated into her room.
