I Was Class At A Mass

I stammer with a stutter,

I can mumble and mutter,

I raise my voice to shout

So being heard with clout.

Most of the time I'm clear

With my near and also dear,

I speak fluently, coherently

And it seems intellectually.

I  used to do the reading in the Chapel,

I read so articulately when I was well,

I loved reading from the Holy Scripture

Emulating our Saviour with apt fervour.

I used to go to the Catholic Mass Saturday 

Then the Church Of England on a Sunday.
