“Vote early and often!” the old man said
As he stood and watched while nodding his head
At the young man who had just registered to vote
Who told the old man he’d be sure to take note
Said he “I’ll vote early, but I'll only vote once.”
Not wanting the old man to think he was a dunce
The old man, showing the wisdom of his years,
Told him he was correct and allayed his fears.
“Exercise your right to vote once at each election
But if you don’t vote, you may lose your selection..!”
