Vision Of My Sweetest Thoughts

    We are but in Pompey's dream
    For in perception do we feel
    Honour among all those who clamour
    They clamour all but still yield
    For goodness is a treasure trove
    Of love and gentle thoughts
    Pure white unicorns, for they
    Stand legend where time means naught
    Careless castles of conceit
    Built upon these grains of dust
    Dreams of these magnificent beasts
    Horned creatures of stately trust
    I see no hope of Spring returning
    Yet always hope springs eternal
    So careless with legends we must fall
    Beyond all feelings held internal
    To hearts and minds. Fair unicorn
    Are but visions of my sweetest thoughts
    Of my purest joy. Of my deepest care
    Prancing through these lace worked dreams
    Like paragons of virtue they stand there
    Upon a crested knoll. I close my eyes
    To see but all else of meagre looks
    For such fair beauty as this unicorn
    Is found in hearts, not in books
