Silently!

Silently the danger swiftly approached

gathered speed as it careered onward

many eyes through telescopes observed

could see the object coming this way

on earth humans continued their folly

disbelieving of what could soon occur

others searched for provisions to hoard

merciless violence then soured!

 

Too many predictions were unfounded

so few thought it would ever be

nothing would change greed still ruled

there could be nowhere for us to flee

darkness despair the disbelief grew

death and horror the only view!

 

No Fresh air sun or sweet singing birds

happy children innocently playing

certain a meteorite was going to collide

ending in terror mankind’s very existence

written its said as an ancient prophecy

as it hurled closer to the earths surface

the few hid in deep secure habitation

no room for most of the population!

 

By a miracle or very poor calculations

it passed by earth at close proximity

a warning how fragile the balance of life

hurtling onward in spaces vast highway

order restored the chaos forgotten

mankind carried on just as rotten!

 

Another chance given for humans to repent

or short reprieve from an inevitable event!

Meteorite!

Crowds gathered to watch the fiery meteorite

shoot across the night sky.

Military listening posts observed its passing

no threat natural phenomena.

The trajectory now arcing it rapidly down

looking like a glowing crown.

 

Nobody noticed its controlled guided descent

dipping into a remote valley.

Swiftly cooling to reveal a small metallic disk

a robotic probe to explore.

Earth’s terrain unseen by human technology

they said no such thing as ufology!

 

In this remote area it took samples unobserved

exploring the rugged terrain.

This was an advanced mission to calculate

from a war ravished civilisation.

Whose environment was destroyed now dying.

on earth for a long time spying!

 

This their final exploration to confirm suitability

before the armada came!

All information was relayed back to a mothership

and the drone disintegrated.

Authenticating a meteorite with ground colliding

as the aliens were deciding!

 

Light years away the invasion had been approved!

From The Edge!

From the edge of the restaurant garden

where children played.

And parents sat happily in the sun

unaware of what glared.

Through thick bushes of its border

was life from a new order!

 

Dormant until conditions were precise

to be the first-born.

Deep in the soil a crashed meteor lay

aliens spores slowly grew!

Matured ready with humans to mingle

as nerve endings tingled!

 

Rising from the deep clinging clay it  came

an unearthly creature emerged!

Into the unknown with faltering steps

to those present a monster.

Though not showing aggressive traits

not a good fate awaits!

 

Where anything unexplained was feared

had to be evil or violent!

Yet the creature was passive and docile

an infant of its kind.

Men with guns arrived to exterminate

this life to obliterate!

 

Before scientist could intervene to save

a unique alien species.

Weapons killed with no care or mercy

with man’s usual aggression.

Being the dominant species their vision

no compromise or division!

 

Satisfied they’d made the proper choice

another set of eyes observed.

Absorbing a violent ending of a brother

intent on a different approach.

As more of the alien sleepers awoke

through the soil they broke!
