DREAM BUILDER Edited

The hammer falls, the nail goes in
  this is how his days begin
   the hammer ,saw ,level and rules
   just partial listing of his tools

He started building in his youth
   25 years past, to tell the truth
   by now his reputation's grown
   strength of his structures widely known

Employers know that there's no need
   to check his work, its now agreed
   by all that he will never shirk
   and takes great pride in all his work

Unlike most he gladly shares
   knowledge with any  youth who cares
   others sadly think that giving
  might interfere with making  living

Translating blueprints? what a cinch
   he reads them down to every inch
   he's actually drawn up quite a few
   just one of the things  he can do

He oft' requested to point out
   changes that might bring about
   a feeling of much larger spaces
   by moving walls other places

 He works out in the  cold and heat
   he still thinks his job is neat
    he loves to watch each project grow
   resulting from all he does know

Drive around his town you'll see
   homes on every property
   so many built by his own sweat
   wiped from his furrowed brow, and yet

If his house you chance to see
   all understated modesty
   his labor's love it always seems
   is spent on building others' dreams
