The Magic Pond

It was a magical night. Twilight was graying the cattails. The crickets And the frogs were orchestra-auditioning Forming a group sing. Samantha, a faerie, whose specialty was spreading delight, Was amid the throng, singing a lullaby to her neonate Lil Hop. The woods were getting darker. Nocturnal animals Came out to play. Raccoons were in the lead, followed by the opossums All sharing a universal ring. Samantha sensed the beautiful mystical creature a moment before He approached the pond. Lil Hop sensed him too because the suckling had stopped. Even the Fox was silent as the tall elegant shiny silvery-white unicorn Approached the pond. Samantha held her breath, knowing one loud breath Could spook him. We all looked at him in amazement as he plunged into Magic pond and disappeared. It was a mystical, magical sight.
