Темный, они были, и золото-смотрящийся

Реем Bradbury

Ракетный металл, охлажденный в ветрах луга. Его крышка предоставила разбухший выстрел. От его внутренности часового ступил мужчину, женщину, и трое детей. Другие пассажиры, шепнутые далеко через Марсианский луг, оставив мужчину в покое среди его семьи.

Мужчина почувствовал его волнение волоса и ткани его тела рисуют плотными как будто бы он достигал центра вакуума., перед ним, казалось, его жена почти уносится в дыме. Дети, маленькие зерна, могли на каком-нибудь мгновении засеваться ко всем Марсианским климатам.

Дети посмотрели вверх на он, так как люди смотрятся к солнцу, чтобы сказать, какое время их жизни, которой это есть. Его лицо было холодно.

«Что ошибается?» спрошенный его жена.

«Давайте вернуться на ракете.»

«Вернитесь к Земле?»

«Да! Слушайте!»

Ветер дунул как будто бы, чтобы сыпнуться далеко их идентичность. В каком-нибудь миге Марсианский воздух, возможно, рисовал бы его дух от него, так как костный мозг прибывает от белой кости. Он почувствовал затопленным в химикалиях, которые могли бы растворить его интеллект и плохой далеко его прошедшее время.

Они посмотрели на Марсианские холмы, которые время носило с сокрушительным давлением лет. Они видели старые города, утраченные в их лугах, лежа подобно детским деликатным костям среди озер дутья травы.

«Подбородок, Гарри," сказал его жену. «Она опаздывает слишком. Мы прибыли шестьдесят миллионов свыше миль.»

Дети с их желтым волосом, hollered в глубоком куполе Марсианского неба. Не было никакого ответа, но свиста состязания в скорости ветра через жесткую траву.

Он поднял багаж в его холодных руках. «Здесь мы идем," он сказал — мужчина, настаивающий на крае моря, готового перейти вброд в и топиться.

Они ходили в город.
