Notes About The Poem

Unicorn Island


Noah gathered the animals two of a kind,
But neglected the unicorn- it does not exist;
Except in legend and on a magical island,
And to go there- I just need to close my eyes.

Oh, it is a wild untamed emerald island,
Its shores caressed by whispering waves;
And within the thick forest dwells a unicorn,
A white horse with a large magical horn.

On this fantasy island he runs wild and free,
And in my wandering dreams, I visit him;
He is fierce- with great strength and beauty,
But for me he lays aside all fear and comes.

I speak softly, stroking his mane with love,
And all the night we ride under the moon.

Now, I must try this form. It makes one's writing exudes let alone the poet herself. ;) Congrats on the placement, BW.
