Toast Masters
–
Joined toast masters one day.
Thought it would be like play.
–
Goal. . ., well, to better speak,
Stand on stage, knees not weak.
–
But hands shake, sweaty pits
To face crowds, gives me fits
–
Picturing group, all nude
Getting in better mood.
–
Laughing at thought, I smile
. . . Forget to talk meanwhile.
–
Crowd thinks break poetic.
Not know, feel pathetic.
–
Take deep breath, tensions ease.
Said my piece, didn’t freeze.
– June Nash
