The little red mouth parted open
in revelation and awe as the majestic
wonder before her bowed her snowy
head, bidding the princess to climb atop
her for a ride. She said she had seen Hana
before, and the words summoned the dreams
of days past, where the young girl had imagined
seeing graceful equine in the blue moonlight
when she stood on the balcony, unable to rest—
perhaps those had not been dreams after all. 
She  reached out towards the beauty,
but her hand fell back again,
afraid to touch in fear that
she would disappear
from caress so mortal
and  o r d i n a r y .
“Good” was still so foreign to
the unloved child, to call this
prospect of riding a unicorn 
hers felt blasphemous.

“…this truly isn’t a 
    d r e a m ? “

Large wide set eyes stared at the human as if she 
could see each and every crevace of this beings life;
she had spent all her days in the lilac woods, watching.
Rare to draw forth from her bed of soft grass and dew
dampened green moss. 
The unicorns snout moved forward with such swift grace
finding the hand that had fallen. Pressing a snout as 
soft as dandelions into the young princess’s small hand.
"I am real.”

A gentle wind glistened like starlight upon the unicorns 
mane, kindly awaiting the child.

She had used to dream of meeting
a unicorn, of riding a horse as white
as wispy clouds and a mane like starlight.
Her nanny had once told her stories
of them before, beautiful creatures
from greater worlds capable of all kinds
of wondrous magic, c e l e s t i a l . 

But when Hana had told her sisters of
the magnificent beings, they had only 
laughed at her. She had contrived to
capture one with all sorts of methods,
bowls of cream and honey, pretty music.
Eventually her mother had heard of her
“psychosis” and commanded her nanny
to halt all stories at once.

Yet for all that heartbreak, here one stood
before her, gazing at her with dulcet look.

“Yes,” she started, voice soft at first,
before it grew in fervor, a smile on small
pink lips.

“Yes, this would be a wonderful dream.”

    It was contagious, the child’s  r a d i a n t bliss. 
It caused the Large deer like ears on the 
Unicorn to pull forward and her long neck 
to pull upward in merriment. 
"Then come forth princess and ride upon 
my back. I have seen you before, and often,
I wonder if you have seen me too.”

    The Unicorn tucked her for legs beneath her
graceful form and presented her back which 
flowed with a mane as white as starlight.

Her eyes widened at the sight,
lantern almost falling from her 
hand. There was no denying it,
that was a  u n i c o r n , 
as beautiful and spectacular as
all the tales promise. Her ivory
mane reflected in the moonlight,
as if she was the source of all light
itself. Her breath felt heavy, she
swallowed it.

        “Am I….am I dreaming?” 

        Foxes and wolf cubs danced within her eyes, 
diamonds and pearls glistened from her long
mane ebbing any young princess to braid it. 
Her small heart shaped head dipped low to the 
young princess and she blinked large doe-like eyes. 

“If you were, would it be a good dream?”

        She was vaguely curious and had she been not a 
unicorn and instead a human, she felt she would 
have a smile upon her lips. The unicorn loved 
dreams.
