The Good Thief.

A good thief in the night

is like a lamb in lion's clothing.

Not to take possession of things but of hearts.

To steal away from this world of lies,

And give to the rich in spirit.

Who is the opposite of Robin hood 

but The Good Thief.


This world rejects what is to be taken.

But will not want to relinquish, out of spite.


This One of richest spirit is not in need,

But wants the hearts and minds and souls.

This thief is like a lion in sheep's clothing.


Some homes will be gently picked through

Like a antique dealer at a garage sale.

Others will be cleaned out

like a Good Curator in a gallery of clay pots 

masterfully formed, strengthened,

glazed and kiln fired.


Some lonely homes will be left alone.
