Song of Angels
by Jan Brown
They arrived in a flash of light. The ship was a white, feathery confection with a thousand portals. The beings inside it were composed only of light and sound. And what a sound! Their song was enchanting, spirit-lifting, even healing.
Anyone in hearing range would instantly feel better, happier, cured of earthly ills, ready to pass along the song to the next needy human. Soon, the world was filled with the captivating sound of thousands, then millions, then billions of resonant voices—human and alien, soprano and alto, tenor and bass.
It was a powerful harmony that changed the world.

benign aliens for a change. I like it
Yes, a little hope to start the new year 😀
A beautiful, uplifting story
Thank you, Carma 😇
Let’s all join our voices and call them please…soon 🙂
Yes, we need them now!
That sounds beautiful!
Thank you, Alistair!
United in a common theme of “peace on earth good will to man,” sounds like a beautiful dream.🙂
Thank you, Christine.
Great imagination!
Thank you very much!
Dear Jan,
What an uplifting story for the New Year. May it be so. 😀
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thank you, Rochelle.
This is a happy thought, here’s hoping something like this could happen.
Yes, wouldn’t that be lovely? But, given our history of war and conflict, it would probably take an alien invasion to give peace a chance!
What a beautiful thought. Think I’ll hang onto it for a while.
Thanks, Russell. Happy New Year!
Would you please call that ship to Earth now? We desperately need it!
So wonderful and a most Happy New Year to you, Jan!
I agree, we need it now! Thank you and Happy New Year to you, too!
So much.
I think this would be lovely, and actually most of us would actually like to sing that song… hope the ship is on its way.
I hope it is, too 😇
Such a positive offering, Jan. Loved it.
Thank you, Sandra.
Beautiful, most beautiful, Jan.
Wonderfully written.
Thank you, Moon.
So. We’re all in favour then.
Um. Question.
What’s stopping us?
Great story, Jan, making music such a believable force to unite the world.
I think music really could unite the world—if only we would listen….
Thanks for reading and commenting, Penny.
