A gentle, delicate, beautiful hand Extends from the Excursion And drops a can Ugh, what a hideous hand

Littering
You packed for a picnic Or a day in the sun Now it’s time to pack it back Whenever you are done. Nobody cares what kind Of drinks or junk you buy. They care about the beauty Of land and sea and sky. You packed it in So you pack it back. Bring along with you An extra ******* sack. Care for our environment As if it were your own. We all live on this planet You are not here alone. Look around at where we live What you can do to conserve The wonders in nature. Don’t throw us all a curve. Pack back out what you bring in; The right thing to do. We are responsible adults Not here to clean for you. You packed it in So you pack it back. Bring along with you An extra ******* sack. Leave like you want to see it, Think of more than just you. Care for our environment It’s the right thing to do.

PACK IT BACK
I found seashells and driftwood, Cans and bottles and much more Like diapers and picnic stuff While walking along the shore. I found cigarette butts and bags And those horrendous soda holders That catch on sea life and twist them In their middle or at their shoulder. I saw palm trees and jacaranda Waving in the balmy breeze And broken plastic lawn chairs Leaning against the lovely trees. I found six-packer carriers sitting With all the beer bottles inside. I saw pieces of bicycles and big batteries And I swear I almost sat and cried. But I had too much to do right then Gathering up all that random junk. I carried them to a ******* bin And I threw it all in, kerthunk! I wondered for the hundredth time The parents these creeps had That let them grow so ill behaved, And so embarrassingly bad. What kind of selfish brat can come And look out on this lovely scene And throw their ******* all around? How can they be so mean? It makes me hope for recompense; That what goes around come again And we can stash these human pigs Into an appropriate kind of pen.
