Salute to ‘Author unknown’ <br /> <br />“Is it not strange, that princes and kings, <br />And clowns who frolic in circus rings, <br />And common folk like thee and me, <br />Are builders for eternity”? <br /> <br />“To each is given a book of rules, <br />A block of stone and a bag of tools, <br />And each must make ere time has flown <br />A stumbling block or a stepping stone”. <br /> <br />Unknown is the author of this fine thesis, <br />But it’s wisdom therein never ceases <br />My salute to you poet friend unknown, <br />For by these words, through life I’ve grown. <br /> <br />Alf Hutchison and Author unknown<br /><br />Alf Hutchison<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/salute-to-author-unknown/
