Loveliest Unicorn

No one had ever seen a lovelier, daintier unicorn.
He was the most gracious one who was ever born.
He never bragged about his oversized horn.
Instead, was humble, and made no one forlorn.

He had the manners of a well-bred king of kings.
A knowledge of mystical, magical, powerful ethereal things.
He was a wizard at predicting things that came true
And he was never dour, sad, angry, mean or blue.

We loved this unicorn, and we told him as much.
He appreciated this and shared his magical touch.
He shared his food, his wife, his children and his bed.
Uh-oh, Can I please rewrite that last sentence instead….
