The Cat Burglar and the Monk

Scaling the walls outside Like an agile athlete Prayers is going out For the sinners, the needy And just as the demons retreat A sudden drop of cold sweat Rush down the monk's forehead For a faint sound of a window pane Falling to the floor in splinters The last syllable paused To a sound so sinister In the dead of night Two eyes meet It was love at first sight The jewel the thief stole Was the monk's heart Incidents like this makes Many relate to fate For the monk love boosted his faith As for the cat burglar She found love and salvation Love is divine She couldn't help but tarried In a few months wedding bells rang Who would have thought An unusual union Love is no respecter of persons
