Final ride

Outside the country in a tree studded forest
Off the road sign advertising nursing home
Seemed like a perfect area for seniors to rest
Stood an odd disc structure shinny as chrome

Reluctant to do formal goodbyes
Grandpa's family abandoned him quickly
Getting rid of him before he dies
Left out front in wheelchair looking sickly

An A.D.A. ramp lowered down
A futuristic jumpsuit wheeled Grandpa inside
Flying saucer structure lifted from the ground
Extraterrestrials took Grandpa for a final ride
