Dragons and Unicorns

Reading the bible 

Again,

With a more adult curiousity,

I find -

Dragons and 

Unicorns mentioned 

Many times !

Water being turned to wine 

And multiplying loaves and fishes 

Is mentioned with much more 

Amazement 

Than the common everyday occurrence 

Of dragons and 

Unicorns 

What am I to make of this -

Seriously !

The blind can see 

The lame can walk 

And dragons and 

Unicorns lounge around 

In the public square 

Causing no great calamity

The Roman solders must have had 

Special divisions 

To fight them 

Or catch them 

Or deal with them 

     Somehow 

Special nets 

For unicorns

(Pet them) 

Special harnesses for dragons 

(Ride them) 

It is in a book 

Which some say I must believe in 

Literally !

- some say 

It is open to interpretation -

Some hardly look at it 

At all 

God is love 

And light -

To be sought 

Within

And there are dragons 

And unicorns 

But -

Loving "my" neighbors 

Is not so easy
