“Dramatic!”
“Awesome!”
“It’s only the sun coming through the clouds.”

“We do remember what happened some years ago.”
“It was bizarre.”
“Nah, that was just a trick in the sky.”

“You can’t diss it.”
“We’re all there at the time.”
“I’m saying nothing.”

“Well, we are still looking.”
“And there is still something rather strange up there.”
“Hmm.”

“Come on, let’s walk a bit.”
“Yep, up there.”
“Hmm, if I must.”

So they walked up there, while still looking up.

“Oh wow, that was defo a UFO.”
“And off it went.”
“Bugger… and ouch.”

“Oh, can we help you up?”

  14. I once thought I saw a UFO. I was a teenager on a camping trip with my friends near Lake Mead which was near where I lived in Las Vegas. It was also near the fabled Area 51 which was then the testing grounds for the new (back then) Air Force stealth aircraft. What I saw was probably a very real government test, just a point of light in the sky to me.

  17. That’s a fun poem story and a great picture. When I was in the Swedish army in northern Sweden, on the border between Sweden and Finland we saw something remarkable. There was a huge blue/green shiny elliptical object in the sky. It turned out to be a natrium cloud left behind a Russian intercontinental missile sent from Murmansk, a Soviet navy base not too far from where we were.
