How Sam Got His Voice

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

Alas,

the greatest impediment 

on one's way towards achieving harmony with

Show Impediment

There once was a lap dog named Chloe,
Well-groomed and adorned to be showy;
She pranced in the ring,
Applause she did bring,
With her tail and her ears long and flowy.

There once was a schnauzer named Pete,
Bearded and eye-browed so neat;
He wanted to win,
But failed to begin,
For Chloe had gone into heat.

Not Realizing, They All Thought, He’d Said, ‘Play Doh’ ...
