How about you…?

Do you?

Believe, I mean,

Seeing a saucer land at your scene,

Shiny silver with lights so white and blue…

 

Can you believe the unbelievable?

Are you a skeptic or an optimist?

Is the glass half full or half empty?

Do you believe that extra-terrestrial life does exist…?

 

Could you see them in YOUR backyard?

Maybe w/ many tentacles or eyes, or maybe they are all bards,

Like yourself they could be writers of poetry,

Think how much you could write with multiple hands,

Or maybe it might be better to think of playing, at one time, many hands of cards…

I'm a believer. Saw something unexplainable in 1988. No swamp gas involved. Patrick

You pose interesting question, Ed. I'm not a true believer, yet know I don't have the knowledge to dis-prove others' claims of what they've
seen. I think it is possible there is intellegent life in the hundreds of galaxies out there...yes...probable.

I most certainly believe that we ain't seen nothin yet, yet we insist on trying to "rationalise" based on the limited information currently available to us. I think the supernatural is the unseen seven eighths of the iceberg of existance anyways, darlin, so you are askin someone who's already firmly a convert! Green men I'm not so sure about as such, but there's already so much just beyond the peripheral vision of our tiny minds in the here-and-now that I really haven't given it much deliberate thought... Apart from Stonehenge and the lands of Arthurian Legend, I lived for 18 years in the epicentre of England's Flying Saucer and UFO-sighting region... Our equivalent of Roswell. Guess that explains a lot, huh?! :)) xx

Could you see them in YOUR backyard?

I did see them in my backyard on The Great American Backyard Campout. They were on a scouting mission to this planet, looking for fellow cannibals. I gave them directions, to your neck of the woods!

Anything can be possible, but I really don't believe in spaceships or aliens. Sorry. But this is a good write; an interesting read, Ed! Well done!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :)

Saw one overhead in 1963, aluminum or gray steel, round, about thousand feet directly up for several minutes until it took off, soundlessly, as two fighters came trying to catch it. They never did.
It was the first time that I heard we suffered of collective hysteria when holding responsibility for zillions of dollars of equipment and thousands of fellow soldiers lives.

I do believe, whether they are from outer space, inner space, undersea or some other as yet unidentified location that their is a superior race that observe us from time to time. It seems though that unlike our earlier explorers of unknown continents they are content to just let us live in a barbaric state...

Mariard Volume 1 The gifting by Christine Jones

Born of their seeds, kingdom will rise against kingdom, one will hold great mysteries, one will turn the tide and one will not be bound. War is fought, not only on the field but also within the mind. Nothing is what it seems take nothing for granted.
