Photo Prompt © Lisa Fox
“Look. There’s a spaceship up there.”
“How exciting!”
“Will it come down?”
“I do hope so. We have been here for too long.”
They stood completely still while the smaller hoomans moved around and then they moved on.
Then several tiny Martian guys join them.
“Will they see us?”
“We can only hope.”
“Do you think they will wait for us?”
“Do they even know that we are here?”
“Okay, back to the top, I say.”
And so they did.
And it did go dark.
And the tiny spacecraft appeared again… and then hovered.
“Yay, we’re going to go home…”
