"Unicorns and Fireflies", by Nancy M. Graham Copyright © 2000
Magical, mystical
One is of legend, one is of life
Both in their own way capture our imaginations.
The beautiful white unicorn, silver dust, and gold horn as it's crowning glory.
We think of fairies and legends
Princes and princesses
White knights and castles
Billowy clouds in the sky
Places where whishes come true and everything is magical
The unicorn captures us and takes us to another place and time
A special place, a wonderful place, a safe place.
Watch the firefly on a summer's eve,
Flitting amongst the trees and meadows
It reminds us of our childhood
It reminds us of nights gone by and nights to come
We ran after them, caught them, put them in a jar
Laugh!
We had a night-light, though Daddy said they would soon die
Without their freedom
We were just kids, we were excited
The firefly was magic!
The unicorn and the firefly
How they hold our imaginations with their simple magic,
It will always be
Unicorns and Fireflies!
