5500 Years From Home

In addition to the 250 plus Lyrical Pieces that I have written and received Copyright Protection from the Library Of Congress - I have, also, written a Novel (copyrighted but not Published) entitled 5500 Years From Home. I am currently working on a 2nd Book entitled The Island that I am about 1/2 the way towards completion, at this date.

I have decided to, occasionally, post excerpts from 5500 Years From Home in this Blog space.
Today, we peruse the 1st page of Chapter 4 – Page 23.

Enjoy !

5500 YEARS FROM HOME

chapter Four ... page 23

Silent Encounter

As the craft’s soft faint glow became a little brighter, Thom, Charles and Audrey decided to retreat a few yards back from where they stood. Suddenly, a calming voice was heard to say not to worry and that they would not be harmed. The three of them looked at each other and Charles asked if the others had heard it. Thom said he had heard it .. but asked where it had come from ? Audrey assured them that she had not said anything. Strangely though, all three felt an easiness come over them. They soon began to understand what was happening and yet, they were not afraid. The craft was emitting not only silent words but an aura of peacefulness. It was becoming apparent that this was not a weather apparatus nor was it a communication satellite. It was an Orb that housed a Being. And the Being was injured and in need of help. Thom, Charles and Audrey all felt as if they were in a state of suspended animation. Yet, they were lucid and quite awake. And all felt a warm, fuzzy easiness and one of a great understanding.

Immediately, Audrey was silently informed to go back to her house and be with her mother and children. And she understood that she should not tell anyone of what was occurring out here. Audrey looked at her husband and father and nodded and began to walk back to her house. It was at that time that an opening had slowly appeared on the Orb’s side. Charles was silently summoned to come to the opening. The silent voice seemed to be heard in the minds of Thom and Charles as it had with Audrey. The Orb’s inhabitant was requesting that the Doctor enter the Orb’s opening. Charles started to speak but quickly understood that he didn’t have to. He needed only to think his words and so he thought as if speaking that he was not a Doctor, only a retired Veterinarian. He sensed that the Orb’s inhabitant was saying that was okay. And so, with Thom behind him, Charles stepped up over the rim under the opening and into the Orb.

… all felt a warm, fuzzy easiness ..
