Talent Night At Church!! For Sam!!!


Yeah, we all piled in and sat down,
Ready for the fun to begin!
And on time, the curtains rolled back...
Now let's see whose clever enough to win!

One by one, or pair by pair,
And even gang, by gang, by the lot!
Steadily they took centre stage!
Then up pops Sam...oh he should be shot!!

First he balances a brush on his chin,
And that was real impressive to do!
Then he got a coat hanger out,
And that went on his nose too!

Then he brought a chair on the stage,
No? He couldn't, wouldn't, would he?
Yesss! He did, put it on his chin,
Now I am hiding behind my hands, yep, me!

So then up pops a bike, on stage,
Aww, no, he wouldn't, would he?
Yessssssss, he did, on his chin!
Oh heck, I was so scared I couldn't see!

He did it, oh my, what relief,
Surely that was it, oh no!
Out come the pasting tables!
Now I really needed to go!!

Then a pair of ladders came out,
But he sat down and put his feet on them,
Then up he jumped and just like that,
They were on his chin, once again!

Now I couldn't look much longer,
My nerves couldn't take any more!
And just like that, he's done his slot!
I near fell out of the church door!

With relief!!!

What a lad!

Everyone was really great!
I have to tell it true,
But for me, my vote was for...
Sam, the lad in blue!!!

Next book is a Christian book Sam...
I shall buy you a copy when it's out!!
