The light followed over the car
for at least fifteen miles
then as we approached the next town
launched off quickly, much like a missile

Ten years later and many miles
this time down a road of gravel
a flashing vaguely in the sky
on our way into town we traveled

Suddenly from the right
three lights rose up from the ground
circling each other very close
but never made a sound

For minute or two they did this
then they merged into one
and accelerated off faster
than a bullet from a gun

I have been told by my dad
of a triangular shadow in the night
that blotted out the stars
and gave him quite a fright

We are not alone
perhaps one day the truth
will be shared with us
but until then experience is proof
