He raps his song
To a beat
And as he sings
Moves his feet
The beat is strong,
The sound of bass
The drums play loud
He runs the race
Within each line
A story told
His voice is loud
His voice is bold
The story ends
As does his song
The cheers go on
They want some more
Of his fine rap
So back he sings
Upon the stage
To sing his feelings
Bound in rap.

Any rapping at church today? Or 'tut tuts', and 'don't you even cough' - it will disturb the service?! A fine write Gold.
The hymns chosen for today do not include any Rap but I could try it with "Give me joy in my lamp" as a rap bass line .
Thanks Gold As long as we're not heretical! Well, some churches have 'informal' and 'formal' services now. Both are styles of worship. e.g. I doubt many 90 year olds would rap, though the youth may want more 'modern' things. Let's have that oil in our lamps - not run out of steam!
Great write for a Sunday
Thanks Michael, just a bit of fun.Some of my acquaintance's rap music is on YouTube:

Right up my street
I could hear the beat
Toes twitch on my feet
As a rap I'm complete
Bass under my seat
Vibration of you & me
Rap away Dan, rap away.
Keep me burning...give me joy in my lamp I pray...not quite rap tis true lol great wee poem
Thank you Jooles, may your joy never fail.
Andy,
Thank you for a great Sunday treat!
Loved your poem!
I enjoyed listening to your acquaintanceās rap music. Heās pretty good! Is he the father of the two little girls in the video?
Watching āThe Plankā was hilarious! It had me in stitches!š¤£š¤£
Awesome post!
My love to Joyce and to you!
~Laura~
Thank you Laura. He was only the dad of one of the girls, the other was a friend.
"The Plank" will always be funny no matter how long ago it was created.
Reminds me of when my friend bought a brass plate copy of the lords prayer for his daughter. The young shop keeper had had it polished especially and proudly showed it to my friend in all its glossy splendor.
'Thats excellent' said my friend 'now would you wrap it for me?'
The young shop keeper immediately verbalised a drum ruythmn and began to Rap 'The lord is my... etc'
Great story da, we don't do much rapping in our Church.
Love the VIDEO ~ Eric Sykes a legend and Arthur Lowe funnier than he thought he was ~ especially in Dad's Army. Love your Poem on RAP ~ it has reached the Church but most over 50's dislike it ! Thank for sharing ~ Love yo Yourself & Joyce š§”š§”š§”š§”
Thank you A and B, you are right there is not much room for rap in our Church.
