Seren Roberts Poet Rhyme

Sammy the Snake - Humour Contest

Sammy the snake had a stutter
His "S" sssssss he  couldn't say. 
When eating his fish and chips
Path the thalt pleath is what he said

The other snakes made fun of him
Calling him Thammy to his face
He will have his come uppance
I think for sure he will have his day

Sammy slipped and slid to Wales
Stopping enroute  in Sussex
Now that's  hard for him to say
Came out more like. Thuthex

So off to a speech therapist he did slither
Please help me say my Sssssss
Of course she proclaimed no bother
So re training he commenced

There was a contest in audio soup
Where poetry was read
All the animals entered it
Sammy  the snake took the lead.
...............
Moral to this story
There is always a remedy
No matter the problem
You just have to find the way.
...............
