Your Vote Matters -- rhymed poem

Our Vote for Change

by skye



America, our blessed land,
filled with opportunity.
A country built by citizens
who share a victory.

The people have stood up for choice,
for change, on voting day.
Now let us see just what was meant
by change; for good, we pray.

You have a chance to unify
those whose hearts were broken,
A chance to form a lasting peace,
Hear those who have just spoken.

You represent all citizens
from each united state.
Lead us with equality;
diminish all the hate.

Mr. President, your mandate
is to unite our world in peace.
You are the hope of nations.
Let the words of anger cease.
