I was simply wrecked <br />As soul rebelled and staked <br />Over wealth that was not shared <br />And all of sudden was declared <br /> <br />It was not belonging to us <br />But was put with us along trust <br />I resisted that it must be returned <br />Some of the members forced on us to retain <br /> <br />I kept mum for a while and watched <br />They all went for desperate search <br />Everything was found in abundance <br />The wealth had come to us by chance <br /> <br />My uncle had gone to distant relative <br />He was so much attached and selective <br />He preferred one of our male members <br />To inherit asset, manage and `remember <br /> <br />Uncle did not wait for final draft <br />He made move very fast <br />He lifted complete gold in hurry <br />Rushed home with it without any worry <br /> <br />He did not live for a long with incurable disease <br />He developed stomach cancer and felt at no ease <br />The asset and gold was taking his toll <br />We all knew about at and silently recalled <br /> <br />We were all concerned about that member <br />He too died with the shock of our being stealer <br />My uncle paid heavily too for ungraceful act <br />I had known about it but preferred not to react <br /> <br />Real wealth with blessings only helps in turn <br />Else we have to pay it back with additional return <br />If it is ill gotten then take it for granted <br />It can never be fully enjoyed or digested <br /> <br />We heaved a sigh with no participation <br />It was considered as bad intention <br />What we could under the circumstances? <br />We could have taken his consent and donated at once<br /><br />hasmukh amathalal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/donated-at-once/
