Sanitation



Sanitation! Sanitation!! Sanitation!!!
Sanitation is the backbone of a healthy adaptation.
Looking around and nothing is even close to perfection.
The day dawns and the sun rises, all to no expectation.
We are the very cause of all our afflictions.
For our actions have turned our lives into total devastation.
And everywhere you pass, you'll hear about land degradation.
But what if we learn to do things in a different dimension?
One may ask, what is this new dimension?
How can we turn our surroundings into tourist attractions?

What if we start by planting more trees.
What if we learn to keep our surroundings clean.
What if we start to reuse what is not yet a waste material.
For a day will come when we shall need all those trees.
A time when we shall wish we had done things differently.
A day when our conscience shall demand all information.
When nature shall demand our cooperations.
And the world our contribution.

What account then shall we render as a true reflection.
Let us all help to keep our surroundings clean.
Let us decide today how we want our tomorrow to be.
A clean world is a better world.
