What’s a good 3-5 minute poem to read for Public Speaking?

babagugliana asked:

In my public speaking class, my assignment is to read any poem for 3-5 minutes. This should be something well-known or at least heard of.
Please post the specific name of the poem.




What is best for career success: public speaking or acting skills?

Conversation asked:

I will have time to take one Community Education class next term. Both meet for four sessions and last 2 hours each time. One is a class in Public Speaking and the other is an Acting Class. They say that all of life is a play and most business executives are playing a role to gain respect and credibility. On the other hand good communication skills from a public speaking class would be helpful? Your choice? Have you taken either?
