looking for a forgotten poem

Hi there,

I once read a poem which I vaguely remember. But I'll be grateful if someone could give me its title.
From the best of my knowledge, there was a man who was digging. And a bunch of people came to watch what he was doing, one of them was a journalistt. And all those people were speculating about his motivations. But if I remember well he had none.

Is that enough for someone to find the poem's title ?

Thank you
Thank you for your guess but it's not the one.
The man was digging with no real purpose.
But around him people were asking if he was looking for gold or something else.
It's the best I can remember.

All propositions are welcomed.
