brand new dance

This poem is called a Brand New Dance

Let me stimulate your mind, body and your soul
And tell about a man named Jesus
who loves you, so let Him take control
He will take you from a state of has been
And wash away all your sins
Although you do exotic dance
If you accept Jesus no one can pluck you from His Hands
Because He can see deep inside
Every time you dance, it brings tears to your eyes
Your flesh is saying do your thing
But your spirit is saying listen to the Heavenly King
Because He will never lead you wrong
And He will have you dancing to a brand new song
This is coming from a friend that really cares
And to let you know that Jesus will always be there
Because He is the One who gives everlasting love
All you have to do is accept Him and look above

Collision

My outlasted skin smashes into the enemy,
Leaping out from the crowd I pray no damage is done
We both receive citations for our actions,
I just ask after therapy can we please become friends
After all the damage was only a collision.

DRUNKEN MEMORIES


With screeching, screaming tires,
Billowing smoke; blaring horn,
Thunderous crash, flesh a'ripping;
As on angel's wings I'm borne

Back through flashing memories
To the birth of my first child;
So much joy my soul to relish,
Such perfection, heart beguiled

On to school on first day crying;
Broken heart, I stood alone...
Watching babe I ere have cradled
Walking, smiling, going... gone

Now, 'tis night of graduation,
Standing tall in cap and gown;
Soon my side he will be leaving...
So in drink my sorrows drown.

I see the Kodak's of time and season
Flash before my tumbling eyes
And as my car is torn to pieces
On wings of death, I realize...

Selfish thoughts now have taken
Drunken father from loving son,
And the Kodak's of his tomorrow
Will forever be... minus one.

Re: UPA Forum Challenge

Hi,
I have a problem... a poet on this thread has used the same title as I have for my poem. While, I am flattered, I really believe that a sense of originality should be adhered to.

Thank you.
