A Poem About Recycling

On the bench in our kitchen,
is a small white plastic bin,
it came with chocolate ice cream in,
we put scraps and tea bags in.

Outside is a big green recycle bin,
we put steel, plastic, and paper in,
we also put glass jars in,
all but broken glass goes in.

Out the front is a small green rubbish bin,
we put machines and nappies in,
we also empty ashtrays in,
all that doesn’t go in the recycle bin.

In the yard is a big black compost bin,
where big red worms grow in,
we put snails and dead birds in,
and all from the small white plastic bin.

Outside is a big green waste bin,
we put lots of lawn clippings in,
everything we prune goes in,
in the big green waste bin.

Out goes the big green recycle bin,
out goes the big green waste bin,
all but the big black compost bin,
out with the small green rubbish bin.
