Peaceful Sleep Of A Thief Poem by ONElia AVElar

Peaceful Sleep Of A Thief

Rating: 3.2


How peaceful is your sleep, my thief.
Of course - deserved relief.
You took my whole heart
piece by piece, you think
you own me now in full.
Collecting fragments
you are just pieces-ful.
Peaceful sleep of a thief...

clever alliterative echoes and a catchy rhythm – peace/piece crossover is neatly executed without being trite; winsomely beautiful, a peaceful piece of poetic enchantment... Rgds, Ivan

This first line of the poem 'How peaceful is your sleep, my thief.' is wonderful! Not only the first line, the lines of the whole poem are consistant with the pivotal idea. A small and beautiful poem to get 10 and I did that.
