I don't usually read books of pure poetry but I happened upon this jewel at a thrift store some time ago and was intrigued by the title (poems about unicorns? woo!). She writes beautifully and is an inspiration for my own fantasy poems. The fact that these were written in the 1920's and can still be enjoyed by a young teenager today, shows that these stand the test of time. (
