This is to that sign The one that I can't find The one The motorists greet as they drive my street You must be on my lawn o, sign O, sign that I can never find O, sign you have to say: "Throw all your trash out here!" Empty beer bottles bags that once held chips give me your popsicle sticks straight from your lips Where are you o, sign I'd like to remove you maybe replace you with my own that would read: "Keep all your boxes" "Keep your candy wrappers" "Take all that stuff throw it in the crapper" From two sides I get it from south and from west forever to pick it up I'll do my best adagio |

I live on a corner in a small town and have to constantly pick up beer bottles and fast food cartons etc...( also cigarette butts)that passers by think to throw out because of the stretch of open yard. So I understand~~ M |

Have I introduced you to Robin? grin I must, someday. Outside of the gas company, in Harvey, oh I know you know the place, she once witnessed someone tossing trash out of their car window. Before I could stop her (thank goodness) she stepped out of OUR waiting vehicle and gathered the trash they'd dropped, proceeded to rap on their window, and as they rolled down the window wondering "WTF?" she said simply, "I believe you dropped this!" and placed the trash on the woman's lap! Nod. I sat there smiling while I re-loaded, and then we drove away. Harvey, yanno? hugs and applause you cute lil tree hugger you |
