Which poem for a writing contest should I choose?

I want to enter a poem in a contest at school to see what happens. Here are the three I am deciding between. You have 11 hours from this post for your vote to make any difference.
One Night Long Ago in July
There was beauty and simplicity
Magic filled that night so long ago
The stars began to shine
Bright fireworks filled the sky
We laughed and ran
Happy and free
Out on that grass
How we were filled with the innocence of youth
It tasted so sweet beneath the summer sky
Sometimes I wish that I could go back
Back under that perfect July sky
She danced upon the stars
All alone
She danced the night away
She danced upon the stars
And held the moon in her hand
Futures unknown
And dreams just now began
She just went on forever
Her life began out there
She danced
Continually on
To a song that was her own
She made its melody
In her room
She was so enchanted
Beauty of the heavens
She dreamt the night away
