Darkness a foreign country
Desire made him bold
The moon a true mendicant
The thief a false supplicant

Thief

The tender crescent flare on her face.
I am scared, If she enters the darkness eclipsing my life
that I might rob the fire in her eyes...

light fingered lightbulb thief
stole all our bulbs, which gave us grief
lucky we had a stash way beneath
some still worked, which was a relief

Cake Thief

I wish I could bake
I like to eat cake
But my culinary skills are crap
I go to a wake
Make some handshakes
Then leave with a sponge in my bag

My eyes do not deceive me
Why doesn’t she grieve me
My heart does not beat
For any of her deceit
Her plastic life thieves me

A Thief Stole Through My Window And-

Morning sun slipped through
My window,
Like a silent thief,
Robbing me of my slumber,
While decorating my room
In golden sun light.

Coyotes are scraggly, ugly too
Eating carrion and roadkill overdue
She is a scavenger and a prey thief
Jackals enjoy kill until she makes it brief

we just caught a thief named larry

missing some teeth and quite hairy

under his collar

we found a dollar

it was all that he could carry.

There once was an owl name of Lash.
He hid all his toys in the trash.
Along came a crow
He stopped and said “whoa!”
And stole every bit of the cache.

        the thief is the best actor,
         even outside the theater,
           but in the show of life
          he steals the spotlight !

A thief came in the quiet night
Robbing beauty from the trees
Packing away all their leaves
Only thing left was mistletoe
Blowing green in morning breeze

Harry Becomes a Thief

Once Harry, at night, won a trunk
That he burgled from Tom's filthy junk;
It was a real wonder, 
For what he did plunder
Was gold put by owner Tom drunk.

He was a chicken thief now and then.
Until he met a beautiful twin.
Pretended he’d changed.
Marriage was arranged.
Taught his children how to swindle men.

Worrying is a pastime I do not engage in
I do not like having my time stolen by what if’s
Unless I am writing, using my imagination.
worrying is a time-thief.

who liked to drink milk with a lilly

well the judge was aghast

examining his past

but decided he was just silly.

Slowly erodes metal
Takes away man's buildings ~the thief

an orangutan sits in my oak tree
his nest is made of my sweatshirts three
he cuts the cheese; it blows into my nose
I know he plans to steal the rest of my clothes

Premium Member Ode To the Versed Thief Ever

Stole rhymes
          nine times

        For naught
          got caught

        No jail
          jumped bail

        Snatched verse
          I'm cursed

Premium Member The Ugly Small Fry Tattle Tale Thief

The ugly small fry tattle tale thief
Slid to a quick stop much to my relief.
He was definitely mean
His tattle-taling obscene.
And frankly I gave him nothing but grief.
