(I wrote this poem this week to go along with a yoga routine for my "Tall Ones & Small Ones" Yoga class. If you are interested in the asanas (poses) that go along with the poem email me-or better yet bring your kids to my class!!)
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle-You can be earth’s super hero starting today.
The 3 R’s help our earth- like the mountains, the trees or the parks where you like to play.
Wherever you look-there is something that can be done.
So pick up litter and trash next time you’re out for a run!
You don’t have to sit and think about it too long.
Obviously, a hero flying through polluted air is just wrong!
You help the air when you carpool or ride a bike instead of drive.
It’s the little things we do again and again that will make our earth thrive.
Because flowers, plants, animals and insects alike need us…
To fix our currents problems, you don’t have to make a big fuss.
Little acts help little animals like crab and fish in oceans far away
Conserve their water-even in a shallow bath you can still play!
Us tall ones can learn a lot from you- don’t ever doubt your super power.
Remind others to recycle so our garbage doesn’t tower!
Looking through your old clothes, don’t throw away-donate!
In this way, your clothes help other kids look great!
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle-You can be earth’s super hero that is for sure.
Then plant and ocean and animal alike-clean and healthy will endure!
