Why the Unicorn Is Magical

Why is the unicorn magical...
is that because he has a spiral horn
on his legendary forehead,
which is stronger than a warrior's sword?
There are more reasons beyond that:
some make us smile, others make us fret!


Although a unicorn
is the mythical creature
with a menacing horn
and very fine hair...
he isn't wilder than a horse;
he can he be tamed by Man
by becoming his friend
to end his curse! 


Why is the unicorn magical and savage?
Is that because he has never been chased and been caught?
Does he possess powers we don't have?
And despite the Pegasus myth, he must have a brave heart!
