It's an appeal, dear voter.

Hey Dear Voter!

Please wake up!

For your vote can make up

A huge mote as big as a revolution!

Your one vote is a solution,

To the tons of problems

Your vote is the antidote!

Hey dear voter!

Bad Politicians take flight!

Because you sleep in the absence of light,

Like a slothful sloth, you choose to ignore,

Yet your silence invites them to reap and snore.

Hey dear voter,

You should be proud of the ink,

On your index finger’s brink!

For it has the potential

To make the essential

A true reality.

Hey dear voter!

You are mature,

You have the power to remove the immature,

And instate the mature one.

"What difference can my one vote make?" one may ask…

Hey dear voter!

Vote not for a freebie

Vote for the key

That you think will open the lock

To the solutions of nation’s problems!

In this world nothing comes for free,

But for voting there is no fee…!

Hey Dear Voter!

The Constitution has given you full right,

Now it’s your time to show your might.

For many governments may come and go,

But it’s your vote that makes a huge mote.
