Take The Time To Vote (2006)

 

I wish that I would have voted in the last election-
I wish I could have put in my two cents’ worth, to make my selection.

.
I wish that I didn’t let it pass me by-
For whatever reason, I just don’t know why.

.
Maybe it was the “other” things that I was doing that got in the way-
Or maybe I just plain forgot. What else can I say?

,
Let’s see, there is the early voting or through the mail that I could have done-
I must say that there are quite a few days involved in either one.

.
Or I actually could have gone on the selected day-
I admit it; I just downright let those too many other things get in the way.

.
There is shopping, working and others things to tend to-
I guess I didn’t have enough time left over when I was through.

.
There is clothes washing, dusting and cleaning the car out-
If I’d had a little time left over, I might have voted after running all about.

.
But, wait! Did I happen to forget that voting in this country is my right?
Thanks to all who did and are leading the fight.

.
To ensure that I can continue to have the privilege to vote-
I guess by not voting last year, somehow or another I missed the boat.

.
There are too many reminders, for me to forget-
It’s all over the TV, covered in the newspapers, and even flashing at me on the Internet.

.
I think that this year I will push everything else aside-
And take a few moments to vote, with much dedication and pride.

.
And in case you’re wondering what really kept me from voting that very last time-
I really did! I just wanted to encourage those who didn’t, in my own expression, through rhyme.

.
Let’s all make an effort to remember-
To get out and vote this November.
