Edgar Guest - His Chance
Work rating: Low

“I WANT a chance to show what I can do,"
He sighed when others seemed to pass him by;
"There are great problems I could master, too,
Somehow, I never get the chance to try.

Give me a chance to show what I can do,"
This was the burden of his daily whine;
"I might achieve success as well as you,
If opportunity were mine."

One day they bade him fill another`s place,
Another`s work they offered him to do;
He grumbled and a frown passed o`er his face,
"I am not paid to do the work of two."
