The Fill Pill...World Environment Day-June,05 Poem by saadat tahir

Recycle

Paper I read tossed on the side
Can that I guzzled, out the ride
Shoppers I stash, lie in a heap
Actual mound that has me weep

Its been there nearly a week
Pass it by after a furtive peek
Wade through knee deep muck
And we say, life is a suck

Oh this! It’s done, its fit to burn.
Ah! an that, tuck it under a fern
We zip past by and say in turn
Oh the bums, they’ll never learn

Trash I make called, piles of rot
Gets on your nerves and a blot
Disgusting an Dirty we all sing
But won’t recycle or do a thing

Stack up bottles after the binge!
An there is pooch with his thing!
We aren’t angry nor are we bitter.
Its just another life filled with litter!
