Henry Ategie Poet Rhyme

The Thief

One day, a petty thief 
Stole a piece of bread.
She dashed away in a spiff
“Stop her!”, the trader yelled.

Along came a couple who,
Upon hearing the trader’s shout,
Broke into a run too
Until they grabbed the thief by her snout.

Then came a policeman, 
Who saw the angry mob holding the criminal 
He said: “Off to the cooling can 
We go.” The bread in hand, pieces of it in his dentals.
