Have you see the Unicorn? <br />He hides amidst a forest of words <br />Which make him hard to see <br /> <br />No <br />Not <br />Nothing <br />Is not <br />Cannot <br />Ever <br />Be <br /> <br />But he is there <br />At the edge of the wood <br />He sometimes comes to stand <br />To enlighten a world that does not see <br />The fabric of his land <br /> <br />See <br />See there beneath the tree! <br />See his silver coat <br />That gleams without the sun! <br />See his slender spiralled horn <br />That says we are one! <br /> <br />See with head tossed back <br />His feet strike sparks from out the ground! <br />See, with eyes of smouldering fire <br />Looks he around <br />This Unicorn <br />The symbol out of which ideas are born <br /> <br />Some say he is a myth and cannot be <br />As they pass by they do not even see the tree <br />But they should never mock his fabled crown <br />His concept is the path to where <br />True answers may be found <br /> <br />And should you think this talk is foolish and unsound <br />I shall not be offended <br />You are free to keep on looking at the ground<br /><br />Egal Bohen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/unicorn/
