a tidy profit most handsome.

Fear Not Thieves But Virus

Doors kept wide opened

Why do you fear of thieves?

All thieves in arrest 

In their own,small houses

Don’t fear of thieves!

But Coronavirus!

Pilfer, borrow, pocket or grab
  So many ways for thieves to nab

A wallet, a purse, or a tattered billfold ~
  Pity, this cashless age they only catch cold

in late rainy nights
thieves break into banks while dark

Unlike evergreen trees,
when the right time arrives
I will have dropped almost all my leaves
Then, nothing valuable will be found on me
by the greedily honorable thieves

mother's
apple pie
straight from oven
smiling memories of her warm kitchen
frowning, the pie had disappeared from view
in the tree house
three bad boys

Not easy to earn and learn name and game
Technical thieves are well known to the fame
Artificial ignorance 
Or dwarfish intelligence
Winner all over the world becomes lame

Wise Mom

Mom had saying; I found out was true
She had many; but this one will do.
Locks keep out the honest.
Thieves will reach the harvest.
Thou shall not steal, some never got clue.

Lining pockets with cash large and small,
Once found out, they return not one call.
But an amendment we need
to inflict on this breed
the same treatment that they give us all.
