The Shelf that David Built

This is the space that would hold the shelf that David built

 This is the wood, freshly cut and so neat

That would become the shelf that David built

This is the jig; simple and sweet

Used to drill holes on wood, freshly cut and so neat

That would become the shelf that David built

This is the shelf, halfway done I am told...

That turned into this, strong and bold

built with a jig; simple and sweet

Used on the wood, freshly cut and so neat

That became the shelf that David built

This is the man, kind and wise

that had a wife with tears in her eyes

As she looked at the shelf, strong and bold

and imagined all the preserving goodies it'd hold

Built with the jig, simple and sweet

Used on wood, freshly cut and so neat...

... that became the shelf that David built
