Hi, Jesse.
I agree that it is an important duty, casting a vote for the different roles of elected officials. How many of us are swayed by personal bias, or outside factors that influence our choice.
Thanks for sharing this reminder of the real importance of that ballot.

Voting is truly an enormous task that is laid out before us. Your poem definitely conveys the weight of that task. I feel that you did a great job getting the message across.

Important points made about the privilege of casting a free vote. In these difficult and divisive times, we all need to take your words to heart. Well said.

Comment from Gloria ....
Excellent poetic commentary on the privilege and duty to vote. I've been involved in politics at different levels of intensity for practically my entire life. It is only recently that I find my attitude has shifted from one of active involvement to hovering around the boundary of indifference.
That said, I'm sure politics will engage my interest again at some point in the future.
Many thanks for reposting this most important commentary.

Thank you for reminding people not only is the vote important to us, but it decides the fate of others. In America we have the privilege to vote, and it is up to all Americans to vote for the common good. Not only for those in the United States but the world.

I am drawn to poems with an important message, such as this one. Your appreciation for the privilege of voting is admirable and patriotic. Oh, that more people would spread this gratefulness of a voting system that many countries do not have. Well done, Jesse!

You have said it right that I think by voting carries a huge responsibility. Not only it involves one person voting, but to all of us affected by it. Thank you for sharing! Nice job.

Well done Jesse... and thank you for reminding us all what an important process this is, and how important it is that we all participate. You have expressed it very clearly, the weightiness of the process and the way you feel about it. I'm so glad you posted this. As far as my "teacher eyes" can see, there are zero grammatical or punctuation errors so you get an A for your work. Thanks for this. MM
