Shirley Hawkins Poet Rhyme

You Gotta Have a Gimmick

Nick was a mimic; he had no choice,
He was fourteen when he found his voice.
His new voice was fun; it made different sounds,
He could imitate anyone's voice,
And toss it around.
He got a job in a nightclub.
He also performed in halls and a pub.
Nick became famous as an excellent mimic.
All because he was able to use this clever gimmick!
And them's are the rubs.
