Earth Day 2010

Today is Earth Day; it’s the fortieth year,
but, things are still happening that give no cause to cheer,
while I’m on my morning walks I see a lot of trash,
some that puts my nerves on edge, who could be so brash.

People need to learn some things like proper disposal,
it shouldn’t be so hard, to put forth a proposal,
waste can and basket are usually in sight,
but stuff still goes on the ground, it simply is not right.

When someone is buying gas, wastes cans are quite near,
you can put stuff in them, with no need to fear,
a car window is not the place to throw things out,
but it’s done here every day. What’s that all about?

Its pains me to have to write, about something we all know,
we could teach some others, with a tender blow,
ask them if they dropped something, when you see them toss;
maybe they’ll understand that they make you a little cross.

You can e-mail this piece to people that you know,
maybe they’ll help out as well, use a tender blow.
If we could convince just a few, there’s a difference you can make,
Just let them know those cans out there, are always on the take.
