The sea Came gushing in Like stampeding Wild horses Their manes Caught in the chill wind Like the surf Then like ghosts Vanished Into the mists These were soon followed By more horses Rearing up With the crashing tides And these too Would disappear And so it continued I remained, transfixed By these apparitions Until finally There was one That had a silvery horn I expected that this too Would go the same way As all the others Its mane White as the surf As it stepped upon the beach Then trotted towards me Its muscles rippling Its eyes As blue as the ocean Glanced over at me As though It had sought me out As i stood Amongst the dunes I rubbed my eyes As though To erase This strange vision Within moments The Unicorn stood beside me It then knelt down As if gesturing For me to mount it I was soon astride And holding firm Clasping onto its salty mane As we galloped along This desolate Wind swept beach I did not question This strange reality Simply relishing This strange moment The Unicorn Suddenly banked And returned towards the sea Into the crashing waves As i was returned To the ocean My silent sirens call Had been heard As the horn of the Unicorn Glistened In the magical moonlight
