If `mark-paragraph' doesn't do it for you, try `copy-paragraph', below.
(defun copy-paragraph ()
"Save body of current paragraph to kill ring."
(interactive)
(save-excursion
(let ((beg (progn (forward-paragraph -1)
(point)))
(end (progn (forward-paragraph 1)
(point))))
(kill-ring-save beg end))))

| mark-paragraph
| Command: Put point at beginning of this paragraph, mark at end.
