The Cow Who Voted

A small rural town was ready for voters.
The tiny village hall opened its doors.
As people patiently waited in line,
suddenly something came in on all fours.

It mooed and stood at the end of the line.
Shock and surprise showed on everyone's face.
"What the heck is a cow doing in here?"
"Who allowed an animal in this place?"

The officials tried to push him outside,
He just wouldn't budge, not even an inch.
In defense, he swished his tail in their face,
So, someone stepped up and gave him a pinch.

His back foot came up and he kicked the man,
who went sliding across the polished floor.
Gales of laughter ensued from the people,
but not from the man who actually swore.

The cow proceeded to swivel his head,
and procure a pencil from the table,
Amazing, a lady shouted out loud,
"This smart cow is brilliant and unstable.

"I think he intends to actually vote."
The officials shrugged and didn't protest.
They feared that they would also get booted,
so, all decided to allow their guest.

The line moved along and so did the cow.
Not even one soul objected further.
When time came to enter the voting booth,
everyone was an ardent observer.

The wily cow now holding a ballot,
entered the booth, and all waited to see,
what was on that paper, if anything.
When they found out they all shouted with glee!

I'm just a cow but I want you to know,
I do have something important to say,
time for animal respect has now come,
and I wanted to speak my mind today.

Voters I request that you write this down,
just two words, VOTE COW, for I'm qualified,
same as those who tell us what we ask for,
and never fulfill what they say worldwide.
