The Cookie Thiefby Valerie Cox
A woman was waiting at an airport one night,With several long hours before her flight.She hunted for a book in the airport shop,
Bought a bag of cookies and found a place to drop.
She was engrossed in her when she happened to see,That the man seated beside her, as bold as could be.
Grabbed a cookie or two from the bag in between,Which she tried to ignore to avoid a scene.
She munched the cookies and watched the clock,
As the gutsy cookie thief diminished her stock.She was getting more irritated as the minutes ticked by,
Thinking, "If I wasn't so nice, I’d blacken his eye."
With each cookie she took, he took one too,When only one was left, she wondered what he would do.
With a smile on his face, and a nervous laugh,He took the last cookie and broke it in half.
He offered her half, as he ate the other,
She snatched it from him and thought... “Oh, brother.This guy has some nerve and he's also rude,
Why he didn't even show any gratitude!”
She had never known when she had been so galled,And sighed with relief when her flight was called.
She gathered her belongings and headed to the gate,Refusing to look back at the thieving ingrate.
She boarded the plane, and sank in her seat,Reached for her book, which was almost complete.
As she reached in her baggage, she gasped with surprise,For there was her bag of cookies, in front of her eyes.
If these are mine, she moaned in despair,Then those were his, and he tried to share.
Too late to apologize, she realized with grief,That she was the rude one, the ingrate, the thief.
