It’s decision day!
The sun shirking its job, slept in.
Gray skies, misty drizzle
A breath of coolness
Greeted bare arms.
News media reported
Long lines wrapped around the building.
Not so, in my polling place.
Twenty minutes later,
Decision recorded
I walked back out into the gray day,
But lighter in heart.
My civic responsibility completed.
