What Did You Get?

What Did You Get?

 

Long lost relatives came

On the special day

Feeling good that their kin

Had willed them something great

 

The house went to a cousin

Known to be quite wild

Who had never given thought

To where he’d live a while

 

And the black sheep of the family

Got the gun collection

And the fishing tackle too

Became his possession

 

A golden band went to Sue

And brightened up her day

Thankful that she had traveled

From so far away

 

After the will was read

Some frowned and others fussed

Upset that closest family

Had not gotten much
