Dear Kelly, Your poem transports me to a magical realm where the ethereal beauty of the unicorn captivates the soul. I loved the imagery of the sunlight dancing off her golden horn, and her serene presence by the brook filled me with a sense of wonder and tranquility. Your words evoke a fleeting yet profound encounter, a moment suspended in time where the ordinary world fades away. It leaves me pondering the mysteries of existence and the fleeting nature of such enchanting moments. What a great, mesmerizing journey into the realm of fantasy. - Blessings, Daniel
