My Roll Top Desk
My desk is made of solid oak
It’s forty-two inches wide
The top is made with many slats
Up and down, they can slide
For certain is a real antique
Of a hundred years or more
Old Trader Joe got it for me
Right off the “Odd Fellows” floor
My wife and I sanded it smooth
After we had stripped it clean
Applied and rubbed the finish in
You wouldn’t believe the sheen
My desk is such a beauty
No other could please me more
It has a lifetime of memories
I keep inside the drawers
