The Tool

The carpenter at rest recalled
The tools he left within a wall
So by night he paid a call
Too swift extract his treasure

His saw so deftly blasted through
It jerked and nicked his favorite tool
Just bellicose a real fool
At least he missed the jewels

The nurses laughed a lot inside
The carpenter, he nearly cried
The only damage to his pride
The doctor patched his tool
