Flash Mod With Black-Eyed Peas

Black-eye peas
Name for a group
Not some kind of luncheon soup
Had hit go to the top

The name of it is
"I Got A Feeling" stop
Oprah had them on today
For an audience of 20,000

Off the stage
Hired 20 professional
Dancers , see ,who trained
800 more to dance for free

They preformed a routine
Called A flash mod
Largest group in history
To do such a task

This sight made my day
Really usually don't care
For this very much but
This revered my motor up

(Oprah Winfrey's opening today featured this group on stage outdoors in Chicago.  They led 
20,000 people in a dance routine which I don't know what it was called or if it had a name 
but what happened is called a Flash Mod, if I understood correctly. It was uplifting.)

In reading this poem, Sara, the thought struck me, how for a group of dancer to be good in their routine, they must be close to being like peas of the same pod. Smile, Sincerely, John Moses THANKS ALL YOUR COMMENTS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME AND APPRECIATED
