Prompt ….
Thank you Elaine for our photo prompt!
The alien space ship had its first brush with human race when it encountered a space probe orbiting Mars. The aliens radioed a simple message to the humans using Morse code – ‘We come in Peace’.
Conspiracy theorists claim that aliens have been visiting Earth. The world leaders know but keep it secret from the public for political reasons. The disclosure activists believe that the recent UFO file declassification means the lid is about to come off once and for all. The message was intercepted by amateur radio users and became viral. The media had a field day.
Six months later a crowd gathered to witness the arrival and welcome of aliens by world leaders.

The green men (actually they were neither green nor men) in the domed-saucer monitored the minute details of the massive gathering. They focused on the ‘LOVE’ poster and tension in the ship became a palpable entity.
How did they learn that we have triggered the Loss of Violent Energy program on Earth? The aliens thought.

Thank you Priceless Joy
I had to look it up and Morse code is still widely recognized by amateur radio enthusiasts.
Glad this piqued your interest. Thank you.
Haha. I never would have thought of this – “Loss of violent energy”. Brilliant.
Happy it made you laugh.
Thank you for the generous comment.
Fun story! Nice take on the prompt!
Thank you.
Lost in translation springs to mind, and that people/ aliens shouldn’t go around making assumptions. Lovely story.
🙂 Thank you.
Seems the “loss of violent energy” has brought about the love signs! Great story YS!
Indeed the loss or better control over that energy would promote love.
Thank you PJ.
Love the translation of LOVE! Great story! 🙂
Glad you liked it. Thank you. 🙂
Love it! How do we keep this program alive? There seem to be so many competing agendas.
The route would have to be through attitudinal change and improvement in EQ. Thank you for the read and interest. 🙂
