Wishing Well Poem

Be a part of my Wishing Well for the things that I desire.
I am running for ________________ and have much to acquire.

I’ve got wondrous goals and the willingness to serve.
All for the good of this community, in what I believe it deserves.

Buttons, banners and ads are necessary.
And, with your help, how it would be complimentary!

So, drop a bit in my “Wishing Well”
Any amount will do.

As you drop the envelope down inside—make a wish for you.
And Know that I stand tall with pride, your faithful, public servant true.

Thank you,

name_____
