Lost Ballot

I mailed my ballot in last week,
someone called me this morning.
It was a rep from the V.C.C.
( Vote Counting Committee)
I said, “ Yes may I help?”
“Ma’am our records indicate that
you’ve haven’t voted in over a
 decade.”
“ That can’t be right, I mail my
 ballot in, when it’s election time.”
“ Well I don’t see anything on my
end.”
“ Ms, a stork comes by every 
election quarter, I give my
mail to him and he flies away.”
“ Ma'am, are you serious?”
“ Yes, why wouldn’t I be?”
“ Ma’am storks deliver babies 
not mail.”

Very cute, love it but if the Ballots go missing we will certainly hear a lot of unwanted insults. Hugs and blessings, my friend, Jennifer.

Hi Silent, Thanks. You may be right. With everything going on and the upcoming election, I just wanted to pen a humorous write. We all could use humor in our lives. I appreciate that you stopped by:-) Alexis
