My Last Unicorn Sighting ~ CHALLENGE POEM

By Desdemona

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I asked my grandma today "Grandma, where does the unicorn's live?" She said, "under your pillow my dear." I said, "but why grandma?" She said, "because they come out when you have been bad." I said, "but grandma my unicorn is cute." "He is pink and purple with a smile so big" "He has a gold horn on his head and his eyes a baby blue" "Why would such a graceful creature want to hurt me grandma?" She said, "he doesn't my dear." "He is there to make sure you stay out of trouble." "Just a little reminder you see." Today my grandmother got really sick She went to the hospital to stay for awhile I had to stay with my aunt who is a meanie I have been really bad for her But yet I haven't seen my unicorn lately? I guess my grandma might know where he is... I will have to ask her when she gets home. Written February 18th, 2002 © on Feb 18 2002 01:03 PM PST, Lee Gillilan   0 • 10
