The dreaming unicorn

Reposes quietly still

Inside a protected circle.

Magic keeping enemies and nightmares away.

Butterflies deamily float

In and out of the circle,

While moody mushrooms

Staunchly edge it.

All beings bow as they pass,

Some out of fear, others out of respect,

As the dreaming unicorn

Reposes quietly still.
