Abducted But Smiling

The sun sets over an alabaster hill of elements to me unknown Adrenalin still pumping from the thrill of the alien spacecraft in which I’ve flown Abducted from the earth several months ago Wondering if anyone is still looking for me Hiking alone in the wilderness My disappearance is probably a mystery The horizon has a purple haze, though this air I easily breathe I am not sure if they are the same sun rays that warm the earth we did leave Three moons appear in the darkening sky as the sun bids her final adieu Strange creatures above me start to fly; several planets come in to view And now the purpose for my abduction Is made very plain to me They need me for more reproduction Their males have lost the ability Sunsets on this planet are different from those on earth But if romance is what the aliens want … I’ll give them all I’m worth
