LTTE: No Regrets

To the editor:

Let them not say we didn’t care.

We love our freedom;

We love our children;

We love our neighbor;

We love our town, our city, our state;

We love our county

Our country, that birther of dreams, built on a dream

Our country, powered by hope and yesterday and tomorrow

Our country, sustained by acts of all who came before.

Let them not say we didn’t care.

Let them not say we didn’t care enough.

Let them not say we didn’t care enough TO VOTE.

(Note: Poem concept patterned after Jane Hirshfield’s “Let them not say”)
