North Korean Scientists Confirm That Unicorns Are Real
Archaeologists from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea have discovered the lair of a unicorn ridden by the founder of the ancient Koguryo Kingdom.

Koguryo (also Goguryeo or Kokuryo) was an ancient Korean kingdom that spanned the northern and central Korean Peninsula, as well as parts of China and Russia, until its fall in 668 CE. It was founded, according to the Korean Central News Agency of DPRK, in 277 BC by King Tongmyong. And it turns out that King Tongmyong was a serious, certifiable badass - because King Tongmyong rode a unicorn.

which ever view you hold there will always be doubts. Its something you have to believe in your soul

Creature of myths and legends most deny that you ever exist yet time after time you reappear history the world wide names you Depicts you with spiral single horn gleaming white starry coat its said only in a virgin you trust when you will lay your head In her lap as she tames your ferocity and wildness only then can you be caught yet should we capture you? Is it not best to leave you free? some things are best left alone never to be proved as fact I know I believe you to be real Yet a wondrous creature living hidden that forever free and wild should be allowed to roam in our minds and hearts bringing hope and joy to future generations ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ for PD's contest written 06/11/2013 The unicorn is a legendary animal from European folklore that resembles a white horse with a large, pointed, spiralling horn projecting from its forehead, and cloven hooves. First mentioned by the ancient Greeks, it became the most important imaginary animal of the Middle Ages and Renaissance when it was commonly described as an extremely wild woodland creature, a symbol of purity and grace, which could only be captured by a virgin. In the encyclopedias its horn was said to have the power to render poisoned water potable and to heal sickness. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Thanks for the folklore lesson, and very interesting poem. One thing that's interesting to note is that Unicorns were actually mentioned in the bible (I believe at least a dozen times). Though Some believe it was referring to rhinoceroses and not the mythical beast. I think PD will like this!
