In The Study
By Burges Johnson
Nicest place in all the house
Is my poppa’s study chair;
Just as quiet as a mouse
I go creeping there,
An’ he gives a little smile,
Writing, writing, all the while.
There’s at least a million books
Up and down and round the wall.
I guess, from the way it looks,
I can’t read them all!
If I did I’m sure I’d be
Just as wise and big as he.
