The Lake!

On the large lake rising like a monolith

the disused diving board

had an unsettling image to they eye

in a popular public park

the once polluted water now teeming

with wild life and youngsters

in small canoes laughing and splashing

as on the water paddles bashing!

 

With cyclists touring around the lakeside

walkers taking in the views

dog owners chatting as their pets ran

couples in the warm air

happily sit talking watching children play

unaware of a life form mutating

adapting to its environment and spreading

on waters edge humans treading!

 

None were aware this danger was that near

the weather grew extremely hot

a fine green mesh oozed out of the water

creeping towards groups walking by

dogs senses aroused growling jumping back

owners alerted noticed spores popping

as toxins were released many folk did inhale

any attempts to escape did fail!

 

Pandemonium ensued as those able tried to flee

back from the unseen dangers

soon the whole park was rapidly evacuated

and everybody was rounded up

all held in quarantine tents and hazard suits

covered the popular beauty spot

many were taken away in special transport

as the answers were urgently sort!

 

The stories of an alien invasion were suppressed

so not to cause mass hysteria

the park is still closed without any explanation

the tensions from family friends

who wanted to know what was happening

waited on as there were rumours

more sites were effected the public in the dark

what had really been found in the park?

 

As I write there is a sombre mood never seen before!

The Cyclist!

Late one evening in a small England town

a car driver noted

as he drove in his car on a familiar road

coming to a small roundabout

how it seemed to him unusually dark

being near a local park.

 

At that moment a sixth sense kicked in

instantly applying the brakes

with no conscious thought he stopped

in front of him a cyclist

sitting shocked stared at the young lad

not hitting him so glad!

 

Calmly blinking rapidly for a few seconds

the cyclist was no longer there

as a car came up behind he had to move

the whole time it was so quiet

he could not see anybody it was surreal

had it actually been real?

 

To this day he gets a chill passing that way!
