A Unicorn
To some people, a Unicorn is a
fabled, ferocious beast,
whitish in color, having the head
and legs of a horse.
In the middle of its head, it has
long horn…a twist,
It is widely used as heraldic
signs and symbol-- of course!
A terrific tale once said the
unicorn can’t be taken alive,
it must have been in Noah's
ark...not just a mere myth:
The Bible made mention of it, it
must have been …alive.
No one has ever seen its tongue,
does it even have a teeth?
The unicorn has always been a
sorry, scary puzzle
to hunters who knew not where
to get this golden game.
The anxious children and the
aged sometime fizzle...
Yet the tales about the unicorn
gives it more fame.
Some claimed that the Unicorn
loves anyone who is clean,
So, they decided to trap it with a
virgin, pure as a priest.
The unsuspecting animal
appeared… what a surprising
scene!
Could this fairy tale be true of a
Unicorn: a boundless beast?
Modern zoologists are tired of
the Unicorn’s
fables,
they can’t deny the
existence of more
than one quadruped.
Since they were not
bound to believe the
Bible.
They would rather
stick to the ones they
have seen instead.
