| Stuart the Steward Jack Hohimer Age 10, Normandy Park  Stuart the steward had lots of stuff But he managed it well and never gave guff about sharing, recycling or giving away. He took two minute showers and plants trees each Earth Day Here is the lesson I’m trying to tell Whether you’ve little or lots, just steward it well For Earth Day comes only one time a year But people for eons need Earth to be here There’s a bunch you can do Think of all your own ways To steward like Stuart Care for Earth on all days! Keep the Earth Clean Sydney Bolton Age 8, Lynnwood The earth has feelings Keep it clean Stop polluting and go green Use alternative power Take a shorter shower Keep our world nice and clean Protect Our Planet Myah McNeal Age 9, Kirkland  Protect our planet for you and me So we can see the beautiful trees, Protect our planet with seas so high. That try to touch the beautiful sky, Protect our planet with air so clean, So we can keep our planet green. |
Keep the Earth Clean Elizabeth Brezicha, Age 9, Kirkland 
The Earth needs help now. You can make a difference. Help us clean up now. Poor Poor Puget Sound Felicitas Fischer Age 9, Normandy Park  Poor, poor Puget Sound With garbage lying all around Just think of all the fishes Soon they’ll end up on our dishes We could have a clean sea We can make a difference – you and me! Let’s clean it up tonight And tomorrow it will be a beautiful sight. Save the Earth Eliana Madwed Age 10, Seattle Don’t put the Earth to waste At least don’t do it in such a haste Don’t let down the land, the water, the trees Let the Earth breathe free If we let gas and oil take over The earth will have to take cover If to litter we say nay The Earth will scream hurray! Our Earth Sophie Davis-Rittenberg Age 10, Seattle 
No matter where you stand. Under the sea. Or on the land. We have to work together to keep our earth clean. This earth is ours, So treat it as your friend, Make sure you help to keep it fine. Until it sparkles and it shines. Because the earth is yours and mine. Sammy Salmon Says Katie Forrest, Age 8, Illahee Elementary School Vancouver WA Salmon are red, Water is blue, I love our Earth, and Good lawmakers too! |
