An Ode To Democracy !!!

Democracy will not come

Today, this year

Nor ever

Through compromise and fear.



I have as much right

As the other fellow has

To stand

On my two feet

And own the land.



I tire so of hearing people say,

Let things take their course.

Tomorrow is another day.

I do not need my freedom when I'm dead.

I cannot live on tomorrow's bread.



Freedom

Is a strong seed

Planted

In a great need.



I live here, too.

I want freedom

Just as you.



Langston Hughes

Well the biggest exercise in Democracy comes to an end and here are a few statistics;

Well done India!!!
