Which could change life in Britain in so many different ways.
The vote could be resounding for departing the EU,
Or perhaps that course of action then endorsed by just a few.
If the votes for staying in make up the largest share
The government will make it known no change is in the air.
But if the vote's for moving out, then things will quickly change,
For this will very surely prove quite tricky to arrange.
For after over forty years, so much is now entwined
Which would take many people quite a long to unbind.
For when all documents were signed no leader could conceive
That any state when once they'd joined would ever want to leave.
So all negotiations would then need to start from scratch
To find out just how Britain from the EU could detach.
It surely would be messy, and might take up several years,
For departure to be friendly and not end in endless tears.
And with Britain no more in it, other countries might decide
That they too might fare better if they also were outside.
So a British vote to leave might well result in the EU
Morphing into something that will be completely new.
No-one can possibly predict the outcome of the vote,
Or how it will affect the EU's chance to stay afloat.
On one thing politicians though would all seem to agree,
The outcome of a "Yes" vote would be interesting to see.
