Wave of Fantasy
" WAVE OF FANTASY"
She glittered in the dark, white hooves stepping on white stones
she was not far from her home when she knew - she was not alone
unicorns don't stare, this is what his mother taught him.
more beautiful than any mare, bare white, in the snow
he saw her standing there, drinking all alone
a glimpse is all it took - his heart forbear from falling for her
he crept underneath the silk waterfall
the moon had never shone so bright, it was as if she was the only person in the world that night.
Make haste! I must speak to her!
Running down the mountain he took flight.
It is not fate, for you to be alone tonight
he told her this and held his breath -
she replied with no resent
send me flowers, pale babies breath, I shall find you in the air.
but alas she could only find him in her dreams!
