Life In the Garbage

Garbage is usually found everywhere
Others just want to throw it anywhere

Others try to have clean environment
They go with the rules of waste management

But others have found life in the garbage
Because there are things that they can salvage

Old stuffs like utensils, clothes, bags, and shoes
For others who found them, they’re so precious

The garbage that we want to throw away
Would make others’ lives happy all the way

How superbly our world is created
What we don’t need is what others wanted

Just keep on throwing garbage with a hope
That many lives would be spared to some scope
