FRESH HABITS AHEAD

 

 

                Recycling in Lewisham is the right way forward

                Drop long-standing habits and you will see

                It’s not rocket science; it is quite straightforward

 

                Request green/black compost bins from the Council; it’s free

                Teach the household the new routine

                That is certainly the key     

 

                Surprisingly you may find the family very keen         

                Place paper, cardboard, glass and plastic bottles, tin, cans etc. in the green bin

                Rinse containers first, it is good hygiene

 

                Try not to put stuff aside in the kitchen

                Compost food scrap, shredded paper and some garden waste

                Or anything else therein

 

                Find a spot in the garden for compost bin, in haste

                It stands at 2ft 10 inches and a little bit more

                And likely to stand just above one’s waste

                Items can also be collected from the front door

                Clean clothing, shoes, boots, hats, bags and alike

                Secure a booking therefore

 

                Recycle electrical goods at the Recycling Centre; fridges and suchlike

                Glass is ground back into sand to mend our roads           

               It’s all sheer business-like

 

                Place a sticker on an old mattress; await a free-load

                Pray that it does not rain; hallowed
