"Three Builders" by Anonymous

THREE BUILDERS
Anonymous

"What are you doing?"
a man asked of three laborers
beside a building under construction.

The first man replied,
"Stone-cuttin'."

The second smiled. "Puttin' in time --
until a better job comes along."

The third man waited a moment
and then said simply,
"I'm building a cathedral!"
