Under the bright sky, in a land of serene morn, lived a small unicorn, sparkly and reborn. Her name was Lilly, and joy she did bring, but one day her horn was gone— what a strange thing!
Oh no, oh dear! Lilly shed a tear. 'Where is my horn?' she'd say. She wandered the meadow, 'I need it today!' With a sigh deep and vast, she decided to ask.
First to Wise Tree she trotted, roots gnarly and knotted. 'Have you seen my horn? I've looked since the dawn!' The tree replied slow, 'No, but try Lily Pond below.'
Off to the pond she went, her hooves softly bent, causing ripples and such, in the water's soft touch. 'Dear frogs and fish, oh, I have just one wish! Have you seen my horn? It's much missed, forlorn.'
The frogs croaked in chorus, as if singing a floras, 'No horn have we seen, but try behind the queen's garden screen.'
Lilly hopped to the garden, hoping no pardon. 'Oh flowers so bright, have you seen my horn's light?' The roses giggled and sighed, 'Not here, what a ride! Try the butterfly glade, where dreams do parade.'
With a heart full of hope, she dashed down the slope, to the place where butterflies dance, taking chance after chance. 'Have you seen my horn, dear wings of the morn?'
The butterflies fluttered, their answer quite muttered, 'Here it might be, hidden by a tree.' Then fluttered so light, showing her something bright.
'Twinkle, sparkle, shine! Is that horn mine?' Lilly exclaimed, her joy uncontained. The butterflies nodded, her horn, it was spotted.
She placed it on her head, feeling magic widespread, 'Thank you, thank you!' she shouted, so much love she sprouted. With her horn right back, she returned on her track, spreading joy, love, and rhyme, in her own special time.
From that day forward, she would always flutter, helping others in need without a stutter. For Lilly knew well, a good deed will dwell, ensuring magic and joy forever will swell.
And so Lilly pranced, in her land full of chance, with a horn atop fine, shining bright as sunshine. She danced, laughed, and played, in her dreamland parade.
