SOMEONE STOLE MY UNICORN
A Poem by
DONALD EISSLER
Just a deam .....
Someone stole my
Unicorn Someone stole my Dream. Now my heart is broken She was not the
one it seems. My Dream has turned to ashes
Only a memory in my
mind. A Dream never realized Sometimes life can be unkind. The
residue is blowing Across the meadow fair, Spreading tears of
ashes With no one there to care. Blinded by my imagination Or maybe by
my Dreams, Looking at the moonlight Riding one too many beams. Will
I be like a Phoenix Come rising from the ash, Or like a bolt of
lighting And be nothing but a flash? So if I do again arise From the
remnants of my past I shall be much more careful Not to fall in love so
fast. For I will spread my wings Over mountains,over dale Hoping
there is someone Whose love I shall not fail. So if you have a
dream That you would like to share Start looking for a Phoenix Flying
through the air. He will take you with him But there might be some
delay There may be someones dragon He needs to slay along the
way

Freely flowing words and rhymes of disappointment - but willingness to fly again with the hope to attain what was lost. Will you, Phoenix, compose music to this almost BLUES?

Inspiring bit of prose. TK has been retired with this piece. They should call you Father Minstrel, because you have seen life and lived to tell about it in a rhythmic, sobering way. You also have the look of Father Time or Father Christmas.

Delightful! Very mythical with a ring of truth and reality. You rhyme in your poetry so easily and well that it never comes across as trite or simplistic. It provides a smooth, lilting flow to your work. I am jealous of that ability! I like how you compare Unicorns and dreams...nice one, my friend!

Stunning. The feel of this is light and familiar, perhaps enchanting and it delivers a classic feel I cannot pin down but love to visit again.
