Thanks for your contribution IRISH DANCEHALLS. Unfortunately, we can only accept encyclopedia articles, rather than poems. You might want to take a look at Wikia, where you might either find, or be able to create, a project that is suitable for poetry contributions.

Although I've deleted the poem from the article namespace, I've restored a copy of it below, so you won't lose it:


 * The old dancehalls are silent now/Where once we used to go/And we're feeling sad and lonely/For the years of youthful glow/The ladies were so elegant/So graceful and so tall/Standing there with regal splendour/As support beams for the wall/Sure "the crack" was always mighty/It was often more than great/Though it's birthplace was in Dublin/Up at famous James's Gate/"The cracking" sometimes was intense/We could hardly breathe at all/Our lungs would beg for oxygen/But we hadn't room to fall/And we'd often have a sideshow/Leaving blood upon the ground/And handbags would be flying/And hair came falling down/And when the show was over/The owner closed the gate/"Good night, safe home, god bless you"/MY GOD, WASN'T THAT GREAT?!
