Straw Paper, Corn Husk Paper, Rice Or Cotton Paper, Elephant Dung Paper Poem by Saiom Shriver

Straw Paper, Corn Husk Paper, Rice Or Cotton Paper, Elephant Dung Paper



Light paper is
made from rice
in a twinkling or a trice
Paper from cotton
is by God begotten.
Paper is made
from corn husks
saving the homes
of those with tusks.
Paper made from straw
helps children learn to draw.
Paper made from
bags which held coffee beans
makes the world
a little more green.
Paper is made from
elephant waste
rather than killing
trees in haste.
