Desert Trip!

A couple on holiday in Las Vegas city

decided to hire a car.

And take a day trip into the vast desert

objects they hope to see.

Hearing much about the secret base

their journey gathered pace!

 

Racing away from the city excitedly

without expectation.

But hoping there could be a sighting

for them to remember.

Excited with the anticipation and fun

roof down enjoying the sun.

 

Near the perimeter of the vast area 51

their car came to a stop.

Thinking the fuel had actually run out

stuck on the hard shoulder.

Sitting taking in the shimmering view

as in the sky a dot of light grew!

 

Becoming aware of this pulsating object

closing in on their position!

No  noise could they hear as it got near

rapidly changing shape.

Then it was hovering above their heads

their nerves torn to shreds!

 

Now a reddish hue and an elongated form

they felt a searing heat.

It moved hovering above the sandy floor

for what seemed hours.

Afraid to move could only watch in awe

chilled to their bony core!

 

Within a blink it shot straight up and vanished

at an incredible velocity!

Their hired cars engine just started once more

in shock got out of there.

Their desire had unexpectedly been fulfilled

but this show had not been billed!

 

That day they were not the only witnesses

but no explanation was ever found!
