The Day of the Comets - Act 1
An advanced party
From many years in the future
Visit a planet called earth
A most barren of features
They ascend a steep hill
Like a battle scarred scene
As their receivers locate
Something unseen
They scrape the dirt
And uncover a find
Something so old
From a different time
Surveillance over
They head back to their ship
To set out again
Once they re-equip
The items they found
In particular on that hill
With their modern technology
They hear a historical chill
They sit in angst
At the words they hear
From a few centuries ago
A voice in fear
As i stood on the porch
Over looking the valley
I start to view the comets
As i await earths finale
To know what happened, please read " The Day of the Comets - Act 2 "
