How Sam Adams Gained His Voice

How Sam Adams Gained His Voice for Writers Cramp

Sam Adams
Was born prematurely
Spent his first moments
In an incubator

Born with bad hearing
Bad vision
Bad teeth
And a speech impediment

And a learning disability
But he learned to cope
As he was a genius
Reading college level
In the second grade

When he was in high school
To overcome his fear
Of public speaking
He joined the debate team

His specialty was impromptu speaking
He found that he excelled
At making speeches on the fly
Overcoming his fears
Of public speaking along the way.

That is how Sam Adams
Learned to speak in public
Becoming a good speaker
In the end.
