Once upon a time

My first try of a Ballad.

Once upon a time,

there was lot of crime.

There was a precious golden leaf,

to be stolen by the thief.

The leaf had been lost,

but the thief paid the cost.

The thief lost his profession,

the leaf came back to possession.

There goes the time,

with lot of crime.

It seems a bit like the lines are forced into a rhyme scheme.
Maybe try to write some free verse...without the conformity, the lines might go deeper in to meaning, and let form go a bit.

Yes...thank you for your review.
Will change it and update.
Actually I don't write poems, but I was inspired from all the poems that everyone writes in this website.
