THE RAINBOW UNICORN
As I walked through the waking forest,The flummox started to stir.
It looked a clumsy creature,
Covered from head to foot in fur.
There were many other creatures,
Most had heard of in their dreams.
But nobody had ever seen,
A baby unicorn with rainbow wings.
Beasts of burdens,
Could take many forms.
Expecially if they lived,
In the land of the unicorn.
There were the nomadic bats,
That hung around dromadary bees.
You know you've seen them,
With saddles on their backs.
That flew between the idle flower trees,
Were flying hippopotamice circled.
The mose covered ground, They always did
before they laid down, To sleep.
As I walked passed the hills and hilltops,
There were many whirling derbishes.
With animals climbing by there side,
I saw two worried unicorns.
With two giant silver wings shimmering by their side,
For these were no ordinary unicorns; but chameleons.
Who could change their shapes into many things,
While looking for their child.
