This beautiful poem illustrates the fascination and mystery connected with that most secretive of creatures, the unicorn.
Oh, magical, mythical, mystical beast
Wherefore dost thou graze
In verdant valleys and leafy glades
Reliving the memories of halcyon days
Of fearless freedom?
Oh, elegant, elusive, ethereal steed
Who hears thine elfin hoofbeats pass?
What virgin rides thy graceful form
Thro' kaleidescopes of flowers and grass
To thy secret El Dorado?
