A Unicorn Poem by Verliza Gajeles

Somewhere along the dark shades of trees
I could feel someone's waiting for me
A creepy feeling I couldn't hide
A spell telling me not to hide.

A second thought I set aside
As I wandered through the night
I froze and turn cold as ice
I saw something, I couldn't believe my eyes.

Oh, what is that?
A Unicorn!
It's the first time I saw a horse with a horn!
Is it a dream or a reality?
But wait, I could feel its eyes looking straight at me.

Eyes so friendly and so deceiving
And I couldn't help myself from believing
As its body glowed in the pale moonlight
It vanished like a dashing light.

I rubbed my eyes and start to blink
Where is it now, I start to think
Now it's gone, I could feel loneliness
And found myself drag into unconsciousness.
