"It's 1:30 and I should be in bed but I have been reading the poems and laughing - I hope I can go to sleep. Here is a poem I wrote 50 years ago. I could only remember a little bit and then it came to me so I thought I better write it down. Love, Mom"
Alien (It didn't have a title so I added one)
He alighted from his saucer
In a very cheery manner
And he carried on his back
What seemed to be a banner.
He planted it quickly in the ground
Then left on his trip to the stars
And according to the words on that flag,
The earth had been claimed by Mars.

Good job mom. I love it! It reminds me of a little poem you'd find in a Shel Silverstein book. I can even picture a little cartoon alien to go with it.
