Earth
Dear Alien,
‘I am glad that Jack and myself met you at Mars. I am sure we would have been lost without you. You were such a great moral and physical strength. Thanks for being a constant support to us. We are so glad to have found a friend in you. You made our journey memorable. We reached Earth safely last week and we felt we should thank you for all that you did for us when we were on Mars. Hope you too miss us just as we keep talking about you often and miss you so much. Do visit us on our planet Earth. Mother Earth is filled with greenery because of the water resources which is more than the land here.
Thank you for taking us around on Mars. It was great learning about the red planet, the fourth planet from the sun. I am surprised that there are high mountains and the deep, long valleys in the solar system.
I hope to come again though it’s impossible. I seem to be dreaming of dwelling there and I keep imagining myself to be in conversation with you. Jack sends his wishes to you and feels the same for your friendship. Hoping to see you soon and take care.
Yours lovingly,
Chandran
