My Chance to Vote in 1984*<\/h3>\n
\n

I like Nixon very much,<\/span>
\nI like McGovern too. <\/span>
\nBut if I had a chance to vote,<\/span>
\nI don\u2019t know what I\u2019d do. <\/span><\/p>\n

First, I think I\u2019d panic,<\/span>
\nThen I\u2019d stand and shout:<\/span>
\n\u201cDoesn\u2019t anybody know <\/span>
\nWhat this election\u2019s all about?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

I just hope whoever wins<\/span>
\nCan stop this awful war. <\/span>
\nBecause I want my chance to vote<\/span>
\nIn 1984. <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

*In honor of President\u2019s Day, I am sharing my first \u201cpublished\u201d poem. It was chosen for me to read over the PA system in my elementary school during the election when I was in fourth grade! My kids think it\u2019s hysterical that I can still recite it!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
