Crime never pays

In this world so vast and varied it is very easy to cheat people and make your both ends meet but to remain honest and straight forward it requires  lot of courage. Everybody should know that they will get away after doing a crime. In brief I wrote this with a feelings of a young child at the outset ready  to face his lives challenges and come out successful.

 

Crime Never Pays

 

The bright glowing sun sets in the west.

The birds fly towards their own nest,

And chatter they do from time to time,

To pleasant notes of the musical rhyme.

 

During the calm of the night is heard,

Noise which is at a distance and blurred,

With the movement of silent chill breeze,

Appears a man who to travelers says freeze.

 

 

Place your valuables in this bag he says,

Then only all of you can go your ways,

Report to the police you all never shall,

Surely then you will be in danger my pal.

 

At a distance a sound of a car is heard,

As along the road it silently purred,

Attract attention you never shall for then,

You will be mercilessly slaughtered  there and then.

 

Nothing much happens for a second long,

When midst a bush thorny and strong,

Creeps unknown to thief a deadly krait,

And god knows to them all what is in wait.

 

Hiss and slide, robber cast anxious glance,

People jump at this very first chance,

Packed to nearest police station is our belief,

Of people who draw deep breath of relief.
