A Visit From Aliens

A Visit From Aliens

A Poem by Dale

I wonder what aliens really do see

When from their far planet they watch you and me

Do they stand there and wonder how it could be

That we say we love one another, when war we decree

 

We show them racism, hatred, and greed

They see what we do to get things we want but don’t need

But, do they see when someone does a good deed

Or only when one lashes out at another with great speed

 

Do they really find it that hard to understand

Why we use up our resources, and destroy our good land

Do they see proof we’d extend them a big helping hand

To solve their dilemmas, when our own are so grand

 

There’s no proof of existence some scholars discuss

Add your differences to ours, others want them to rush

Just come down and visit, put an end to the fuss

But, I wonder if maybe those aliens are just smarter than us

Again thank you for entering my little contest.
I'm sure you will appreciate that I cannot comment now as this would be unfair to other entries.
I shall return after the contest is over.
Very best regards.
