In all creation
life is the most precious
so try remember
conservation of Life
goes hand in hand
with conservation of Earth

Teach our souls
reflect, debate
participate
upcycling
recycling
reducing
reusing
a new virtue

Lessons
in Nature
show nothing
is wasted
Even space,
that great vacuum,
allows orbits of planets
and sunshine to come through

Build
a roadside buffet
for vultures,
a freezer locker
for ice fisherman,
hitch your wagon
for the oregon trail,
keep in mind
it all takes time
there is no easy fix

Life
goes hand in hand
with conservation of Earth
as students without teachers
reflect, debate
how nothing is wasted
keeping in mind
it all takes time
