Crop Circles From the Sky

Crop Circles from the Sky?

By Elton Camp

Crop circles appear in fields overnight
They give some people quite a fright
The stalks of the plants are only bent
Since a force against them was spent

To UFO fanatics it always does seem
That the cause was an alien force beam
Why would aliens the galaxy traverse
To make farmers crop damage curse?

Would superior aliens come all this way
So that in our farm crops they can play?
If to communicate they are really sincere,
Why limit it to only a few months a year?

Why would most be in English wheat
If the whole planet they wish to greet?
That they made them, two men revealed
By using ropes and boards in the field

That these men did just what they related,
On numerous occasions have demonstrated
Other men then showed it they too could do 
And created geometric designs old and new

But the gullible won’t accept this reason why
So insist the makers were aliens from the sky
People would certainly have to be quite dumb
To think crop circles show aliens have come

Hey Carolyn, I think they can be explained quite satisfactorily, but it would be hard to do in the format of a poem. I may post a prose writing on it somewhere on the Internet, probably Scribd.com Elton

Nice to see you again, Elton. We have quite a few crop circles here in the States as well. Some of them have intricate designs. I'm at a loss to explain them. Although I do believe in alien visitations, there may be other forces at work here as you say. This is my kind of poem -- love extraterrestrial and sci-fi themes. A favorite for me. Great write! Love, Carolyn
