How to Save Us
by Arielle - MacDonald Training Center
Reduction
Plastic that’s made of materials
Pressed into solid object
Not to throw plastic creation
Into the water
Is to save the earth
And pollution contamination on land
Cause implication on
Health on a daily basis
Like open burning of garbage
Waste and indoor air pollution
And make the world
A better place for reusable items
that make me feel good
Plant A Tree
Morgan - Villa Madonna
Plant a tree
Watch it grow
Even though it might be slow
Falling leaves from autumn breeze
Awaits the springs guarantees
As the tree begins to bloom
Evenings become afternoons
I will always remember the day I planted my first tree
