I Believe In Unicorns

Now don't think me mad
Or one of those crazy chicks
Because I believe that Unicorns
Really did exist
Don't roll your eyes
Or make that face
Just humour me
And I will make my case
You see I was one of "those"
A horse crazed girl
And for my grade six science fair
The Horse
Its history I did unfurl
From the dog sized Eocene Eohippus 
Family lines that include the Tapir
To lineage linked to the Rhinoceros 
I ask
Can you assert without fear
That an equine beast with a single horn
In the forest did not disappear
As the rhino's horn is made of hair
It is possible no fossils would be found
So on my faith that The Unicorn
Did exist (and might still)
I firmly stand my ground.
