The unicorns are hiding I'm not sure of where or when In dreams it's them I'm riding In gallop now and then The unicorns are running Somewhere fancy free Their beauty is still stunning As far as I can see The unicorns are soaring In glimpses now and then In future dreams they're roaring When ends the age of men The unicorns are singing Their voice an angels' choir Their silver hoofs are ringing As they fly ever higher The unicorns are waiting One day they'll come again And then with passions sating We'll greet the end of pain. Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Keth darling sister of my heart and keeper of dreams surprise this is Utterly utterly wonderful writing YOU darling heart never disappoint. Wonderful absolutely perfect poetry, YOU do know I utterly utterly love it don’t you? Of course you do. You know I utterly utterly love this piece of your special magic. Thank you again for this pearl of wisdom that has dropped into my still waters and sent ripples of Ohhhhh across the surface of my soul.

You’ve breathed life into them and made them breath for me, truly your writing is utterly utterly wonderful, and I love it Never stop writing these creations of wonderful delight they are all incredibly wonderfully beautifully written. I love this utterly utterly, it is another Keth classic, to be kept and gazed at in times when my soul needs some beauty Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Beautiful Kethry! I loved the symbolism expressing the longing for peace, an "end to pain". Well done! |

I wondered who else was riding them. Let's herd peace into the world-family corral and cool off our majestic steeds. When they have done with their job Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Auntie Kethp, this is lovely, your rhyme and flow in this cannot be bettered. You have the gift of describing with words in coloured hue, this is amazingly well written. Reading your delightful poems always enriches me and tonight is no exception. I am so looking forward to September I cannot wait to see you in action. Unicorns have always been my favourite mythical creature, there is something so entrancing and wonderful about them. If it hadn’t been for an appearance by a unicorn I would never have started watching Alley McBeal. I love this I really do love this poem of yours, it is perfectly written. As mum says don’t stop YOU have a really special gift to write. Love and warm stuff As always Krissy And while thy willing soul transpiers |

Unicorns found! They're on the wall of my daughers room, just above her bed, drinking water from a flowing stream in the deepening shadows of dusk - I know, I put them there with my paint and brush... Really enjoyed the read Kethry...printed it out for my daughter who loves unicorns and dolphins... jwesley |

(sigh) Oh my gosh, I love unicorns so so much, and I know deep down in all our hearts they will exist and they will slide down rainbows of our dreams and always give us a magic ride to our dreams! (kiss on cheek) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kethry, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you!
