ET- Buds Opening

  E.T. stood at the edge of the agricultural fields. The young workers there drew back deferentially as he approached, for they could feel his higher mind, and they could see for themselves how the plants were responding to E.T.’s presence—buds opening as if to greet him.

  “Kish mitobit eront hoyat nurabong . . .” He walked through the plants, murmuring softly to them in their own tongue, and touching them with his healing, glowing index finger—the mark of a Botanist First Class, even a demoted one. The plants responded, the long row unfolding its tiny leaves as he passed, and the agricultural students looked on, dreaming of the day when they too could make a plant respond in such arcane ways.
