Treasure by Bruce Mundhenke

He had a treasure box

He kept in his room,

But few

Could say what was inside.




In it were things

Of value to him,

He collected

During his life.




One day a thief

Took it away,

To find little

Of value inside.




Mere reminders

Of treasure he kept

In his heart,

That no thief ever could find.
