What makes some people uncaring, selfish
Self centred and down right hoggish?
When did society become so \'throw-away\'?
There is such beauty where we work and play
The wanders of the world ours to enjoy
But all we seem to want- is to destroy!!
I hear you ask what makes me very mad?
What is it that is making me so sad😢?
Every where I look, every where I walk
At what I see - I despair, I shudder, I balk!
Litter! People\'s waste - left behind to rot
Like animals leaving their scent in a spot.
Picnic fare in the park or beauty spot,
Out the window when the car comes to a stop,
Not on their doorstep- have no doubt of that!
Laws of the land - always ready to flout!
How can it be they\'ve become totally blind?
The damage being caused by selfish mankind!
Soon there will be no beauty spots to behold
The world will be barren and cold,
Forests plundered, no fields- just concrete jungles
Jewels plundered from the earth\'s bowels,
Rats ruling the rubbish heaps on every street
It all makes me so sad and downbeat.
No litter! - Take your rubbish when you go
Put it in the bloody bin - not left to blow
About the countryside! Teach the young
That the litter they create should be flung
In the trash can or taken home where it began,
For the sake of every human!
Let\'s not be selfish anymore, begin to care
For our planet, it\'s all we\'ve got to share,
The diversity of nature is a marvel to behold
There\'s nowhere else when Earth\'s gone cold,
Make a start - put your litter in the bin
Leaving it around makes you a selfish bumpkin!
