Haiku Unicorn

Haiku Unicorns

Pretty unicorns

They found favor in God's eye

But were not too smart

 

 

God saw much evil

Frowned down on his creations

Must destroy them all

 

 

Noah found favor

God chose Noah to survive

Build an ark, God said

 

 

Take your family too

It will rain for forty days

No one will survive

 

 

Remember my words

Take all animals two by two

All will come in time

 

 

For sure remember

Don’t forget my unicorns

I favor them most

 

The Ark was finished

Noah called them two by two

And they came from everywhere

 

 

Dancing on the cliffs

Unicorns watched as he worked

Still they dragged their hooves

 

 

 

Nostrils smelled the air

Thought they had plenty of time

They didn’t smell rain

 

 

 

The sun shined brightly

There were no clouds in the sky

Noah called to them

 

 

 

Unicorns waited

To see the first drop of rain

Noah called them in

 

 

Still they didn’t come

All animals were inside

Noah’s family too

 

 

God closed the ark’s door

Dark clouds were filling the sky

Rain burst forth and poured

 

 

 

Silly unicorns

Did not heed Noah’s last call

They climb the mountain

 

 

 

Hear their snorted cries

Mountain wasn’t high enough

Drown in foolishness

 

 

 

Moral of this tale

Don’t dance around when God calls

Be guided by faith

 

 

 

Or be left standing

On the shore in pouring rain

And not on God’s boat

 

You must heed God’s call

When he knocks on your heart’s door

Or be left behind
