Listen for a honeyed,
tranquil sound.
The unicorn sidled around to face me. Her
voice, even under stress, had a mellifluous
quality, soothing as a mother's -- or a lover's.

(2002)
The mellow, sweet-sounding, liquid voice of the
unicorn is unmistakable, as it radiates pure love.
Horse expert Adele Von Rust McCormick notes that
like "its ancestor, the unicorn," the Classic Horse
"is imbued with the same magical qualities." Both
animals awaken the human heart "to the essence of
a love the ancient Greeks called agape -- a complete
and all-encompassing love of the creator and the
created, a love difficult to practice as it is so selfless.
Yet we can grow closer to it if we listen to the voice"
of these alluring animals (Horse Sense and the Human
Heart, 1997).
