Goodbye 3rd Floor

In the old reading room
There was a telephone
And maps of Saskatoon
And a monkey sitting
on a doorbell with a tune.
And there were three bodiless heads sitting on ped(estals)
And two clothing racks
and a wall full of plaques
And a ministers chair
And books that are rare
And a stamp and a key and a small christmas tree
And a quiet old archivist who was drinking some tea.
Goodbye room.
See you all again soon.
