Poetry: Unicorns

Some seem to think unicorns are only white, and lovely!

What about the browns, and others,

Hiding in a covey?

Peeking out without a sound,

Quietly mocking us from a mound.

Hiding away for centuries, Caring for their little ones.

I'm sure I saw one the other day,

Playing in a field of hay!

And to his left I saw an elf,

On to the right was, I think: Snow White!

How sad that every day, can't be filled with room to play.

Could we be happy if we did?

Imagine if you can at all,

Unicorns frolicking in a hall.

Pet his mane, and he will stay

until he's called and runs away.

Unicorn? Oh, yes, there is,

and many of them hidden away;

listen, carefully; and look real close!

See, there one is: oh, maybe not.

Shadows, maybe, what do we know?

Maybe it's another Unicorn, white as snow!

    The last one of her kind,
    She sits
    By the whispering willows of the haunted woods
    That keep taunting her, reminding her...

    When did the search for unicorns end?
    I don't recall giving up on them
    The little girl I was
    knew they existed
    somewhere
