Premium MemberA Vote For Marriage Equality

We’re having a vote, can’t wait for a say,
Can’t wait for the tick on the sheet,
Can’t wait to hear the voice of the people, 
The voice from the folks on the street.

Then the wait for a YES or a NO, 
Whether people get to marry hand in hand,
Whether people, who love, can tie the knot, 
Or is this knot to be banned.

You see, I think it’s a crazy idea, 
That this isn’t already a right,
That we still need to explain it’s a human desire,
That we still need to fight the good fight.

Still, we’re having a vote for marriage equality, 
And my vote I will loudly confess,
Is a big fat tick in the best ever box, 
The best ever box that says YES.


Same-Sex Marriage

Years ago a marriage couldn’t
Join two different races.
Still some people hate
What that legality embraces.

Now today, the fight goes on
With gays who want to wed.
Those with hatred in their hearts
Protest these laws instead.

Why anybody cares what others do
Remains a mystery;
But loudmouths love to spew their wrath,
With precedents in history.

Today we’ve learned our president
Has made a risky move,
Endorsing same-sex marriage,
Which so many won’t approve.

I heartily applaud him
And I’m glad he took a stand.
Perhaps this huge announcement
Means that change is close at hand.

For those who argue natural law
Should not let gays unite,
They have to face that fact, to most
This is a human right.

A same-sex couple in your midst
Will not pose any threat;
And if you choose ignoring them,
They wouldn’t mind, I’d bet.

So kudos to Obama
For his brave and bold decision.
Equality is closer now
To what we can envision.
