| So i am taking a speech class at the college right now, and i had to give a memorized speech yesterday. I did all right. I hate talking infront of people, but some how i am able to handle my nerves a lot better than most of the other people in our class. One girl almost passed out. and two others couldnt' even finish. Here is the poem that i did. By, Donna Word Chapel The stray dog tale
While walking down the street one day
A preacher saw some boys at play.
He saw a dog somewhere in the middle
Of a group of twelve, all in a huddle.
Concerned about the dog’s welfare,
The preacher decided to stop right there
And check things out, so he stopped and said,
“What’s going on, my little lads?” “Well, sir,” one of the boys explained,
“This here dog’s just a neighborhood stray.
We all want to take him home.
Ain’t no use just lettin’ ‘im roam.
So we’ve decided he belongs to the guy
Who can tell the biggest whoppin’ lie.” The minister was horrified,
Could hardly believe his ears or eyes.
So he began to preach to them
About the perils of such a sin.
He went on for ten minutes or more,
And then he said, “I’ll tell you for sure,
When I was your age, little guys,
I never, never told a lie.” The boys just stood and looked at him
In silence for a long, long time.
The preacher thought, “They understood.
I know after this, that they’ll be good.”
Then one of them said, “The dog is yours.
You’ve told the biggest lie for sure.” |
