PJ Scheidel Poet Rhyme

A Different Point Of View

As I look up at the night time sky,
I see something that catches my eye.

It’s not a bird and it’s not a plane.
If I don’t find out, I’ll go insane.

At first, it looks like a falling star.
At second glance, looks more like a car.

This thing I see turns sharp to the right
Heading back out into the dark night.

Now, I’ve heard of strange things in the air
Flying around, making people scared.

I never thought I’d be one of those
Who would say, “I saw something and froze!”

But whatever I saw late that night
Made me quiver to the bone with fright.

I never believed in U.F.O.s,
But I’m thinking now I should, who knows?

I didn’t think anything could survive
Outside of the world in which I thrive.

Growing up, I heard lots of stories,
But there was one that made me worry.

It was of a place full of bad things
Where the creatures cared about nothing.

“Earth” is what all the elders called it.
If it exists, I’ll never visit.

I like my home here on planet Mars.
This is where my friends and family are.
