Flannel: I saw five little unicorns – creatures from folklore.
I watched the blue one prance away and then there were four.

I saw four little unicorns resting by a tree
I watched the orange one prance away, and then there were three.

I saw three little unicorns, but as near to them I drew,
The green one pranced away, and then there were two.

I saw two little unicorns – I watched them run and run.
The pink one pranced away, and then there was one.

I saw a lonely yellow unicorn standing in the sun.
When I blinked my eyes, it pranced away, and then there were none
