IS THAT ALL?

Finding the bank at a few feet off, the devil Doubt in him woke up
And goaded to see what's written in the paper and so he opened it up
What a miracle! it was blank out and out, not a dot or dash it bore
He then uttered loudly "is that all ?" And in a mood he foolishly tore

Before the last "L" escaped lips, there ceased rising lotus to his chagrin
Horror it was, a tidal wave coming from nowhere behind him hit his shin
Before he recovered from the shock, he was dragged into the mind-river
And in a flash, it dumped on a boulder by a cascade in the course of river,

Alas! the priest reached the other world before dying the wife received aid
For not realising-belief relieves and it's a call- 'SOS' for God's aid.
