My First UFO Cathy Lopez
I was showing off what I learned in astronomy. The sky was darker, so far from home. I showed you Betelgeuse rolling it off my tongue. A shooting star, you said, holding my hand. Were you holding my hand? But the star didn’t fall. It sped and turned, rising out of the atmosphere. I know what I saw, but I don’t know if you held my hand. I want to believe.
