It's a special day

It's a special day,

for us to commemorate, 

our duty as a citizen,

going to the polling center,

and vote...for our leaders. 

We might have schedules,

distance too, become a hurdle,

sometimes mistakes or technicalities, 

acting as an obstacle or setback,

preventing us, from giving votes. 

And we become casual,

might as well be angered,

for, the treatment given,

or hardships to be taken,

for someone else's selection. 

But, we must never forget,

the struggles and sacrifices,

our forefather had undertaken,

to provide us the space...

Living with freedom, in peace. 

So, let's take that extra step,

be active, in exercising our right,

spreading awareness, bringing family, 

choosing representatives for our country,

our contribution, as a responsible citizen. 

For, it's a special day,

we have been given a choice,

as power is bestowed to our fingers

pushing the button, after deliberations, 

giving direction, to our democratic nation.
