WHERE IN THE WORLD IS AWAY?       

Little Lee and little Lou sat by a lake sharing a bottle of juice.

It was a warm sunny day and the birds were at play and we

smiled as we watched mama goose.

As we finished the drink Lou pulled back his arm and said”

I’m gonna throw it AWAY.”

I said “Stop Lou, think!  Before we make a mistake!

Where in the world is AWAY?”

“If we throw it in the lake

it’s gone for today, but is that really AWAY?”

Not for the frogs who hip hop on the logs

or the fish who jump up in the air.

Or the little teeny things

that live off the greens that grow on the bottom down there.

All of our spills just fill up their gills

and it’s really hard to breathe with no air.

They play hide and go seek, and think school is cool

so we shouldn’t make a mess down there…
