An early morning jog was the normal routine
left the house as the light awoke
before her partner had risen from slumber
taking her normal jogging route
but she never returned home upon that day
as her husband watched the driveway!
For the time they had been married worried
about the runs she always took alone
always assured him there was nothing to fear
notified the police she had not returned
a full search of the area was rapidly begun
the scale of the mystery would stun!
Over the months the husband was suspected
of abduction and his wife’s murder
but no connection or evidence could be found
so it was dropped he was shaken
feeling they did not really believe his account
as the pressure on his health did mount!
When reports of dozens more disappearances
emerged before his wifes and after
a different perspective to the enquiries ensued
more into a science fiction scenario
the possibility of alien abduction was cited
as world interest was ignited!
It was a rural area woods fields and farmland
strange lights and object had been seen
not until many had vanished was it connected
the plan to step up security and patrols
did not stop others going missing from sight
whether during the day or night!
No bodies were ever recovered or any contact
from the missing was recorded
an increase in sightings in the copse and land
of monsters or humanoid figures
unidentified craft filling the once clear skies
giving the expert a lot to analyse!
Those who dared came to seek out the riddle
as families had to come to terms
at the loss and not knowing what happened
or where their loved ones were
an ora of suspicion had pervaded this haven
beautiful unspoilt on the world blazon!
A medieval mood where a creeping malevolent
force invaded and nothing thrived
so it is to this day where the husband still waits
afraid like all the locals to leave
the relative safety of their houses in night hours
as its been taken over by dark powers!
