The couple were excited their own home
a new house on a small estate
though near to a large countryside park
falling in love with its design
tranquil surroundings away from traffic
used to town hustle and bustle
but it was surprisingly cheap for location
then had no doubts on arrival
pulling up outside in hired furniture van
she saw a suspicious man!
Decided not to mention it to her husband
sure the light was dim
as the sun was very low in the evening sky
just happy to be here
covertly looked around nobody was there
soon forgot the sighting
they decided to unpack the following day
now wanted to play!
Breathed in the sweat smelling relaxing air
unable to get any sleep
walked along the fence of the vast park
heard animals in the distance
so different here still unsure of their move
saw a bright orb hovering
ahead darting about as if it was observing
soon became unnerving!
Those first feelings of belonging had faded
more orbs came into view
hugged each other every sound magnified
both could not understand
why it was deserted the houses in darkness
running back to the van
now in their brains just thoughts of escape
as ahead loomed a shape!
It was a few hours later when a police officer
spotted on a routine patrol
the furniture van doors open abandoned
no sign of any occupants
a search of the area was quickly instigated
and the occupants identified
creating a major enigma for investigation
as the story broke to the nation!
On that small rural housing estate discovered
all the people had disappeared
within a short time frame gone without trace
what had happened in this place?
