  A
  Bag Of Tools
  By: 
  R. L. Sharpe
  Isn't it
  strange That princes and kings,
  And clowns
  that caper In sawdust rings,
   And
  common people Like you and me
  Are builders
  for eternity?
  Each is
  given a bag of tools,
  A shapeless
  mass, A book of rules;
  And each
  must make - Ere life is flown -
  A stumbling
  block  Or a steppingstone.
