Sidey’s Weekend Theme – 04.11.2011: Anticipation
REPOST
Sidey’a Weekend Theme for 16.03.2013
~
I felt the excitement of anticipation.
We were on the threshold of innovation,
About to meet aliens from a faraway nation,
Intelligent life from across the universe,
Intergalactic visitors with whom to converse,
Hold discussions and exchange information,
How much I looked forward to our communication
Prior to their elimination.

Sorry, Sidey, if I have time I will do another poem of ‘anticipation’ from a different angle.

ouch…sadly all too real….we will probably kill them…disect them to see what makes them tick…and then steal their technology….or worse yet we will ust choke them out with air pollution…smiles.

It all depends on how we react… IF they did visit earth…

I saw Elvis in the Cockpit of that UFO footage Russel Crowe put on the internet. Was eating a jelly biscuit…

I agree, Hope. I think it would probably be a case of ‘Fools rush in…’, but I hope not.

I dread to think what would happen if aliens did land on earth, Jeannie.
