  Biodiversity Poems by students from 5th and 6th class.


Saving the Planet     By Sophie Gooney - 6th class

Why must you litter
Like lemons you're bitter
Get rid of your waste
With great haste

Switch off your lights
and cancel your flights
Turn off your T.V.
or you'll drive me crazy

Turn off the taps when your done
And you will find conserving water
Will be fun
Take a shower instead of a bath
It will save water do the math

Walk, cycle or park and stride
and then in me you can confide
I'm on the trees side
When it comes to carbon dioxide

That's what goes on in my mind!



Biodiversity     By Aoife Birchall - 5th class

Life all around us
The good and the bad
We all make a fuss
We're all gong mad

It's here it's there
It's everywhere
It's all around us 
It's even over there

Biodiversity is here and there
It's all around us
It's everywhere



I'm On Your Side     By Tara Alford - 6th class

I'm on your side
Against carbon dioxide
To save the green
And try to be clean

No need to make a fuss
Just get on with your stuff
Put it in the bin
Or recycle the thing

Before I go
Just remember so
That if you plant a tree or two
Imagine what it could do for you!



Air All Around Us   By Michael Hartigan - 6th class

Air, I feel it running through
my hair
Polluted by the cars
I'm ashamed to say it's ours

We breathe it in
We breathe it out
Through our nose
And out your mouth
We use it for power
We use it for joy
It works all hours
It's nature's toy

Without the air
We wouldn't be here
If we don't stop
It won't be clear




Beautiful and Weak     By Alisha Mullins - 6th class

From flowers in the grass
To the badgers in the undergrass
Oh, so fabulous indeed
I wish they would stop you
Oh, biodiversity so beautiful and weak

The trees as high as skyscrapers
Oh, so brave and tall
We just stand and stare
As they their machines and distroy you

We take our bottles
We take our litter
And dump it down upon the drain
The earth is becoming a dumping ground
And we do nothing about it

If we take our time
To stop and think
We can help save the planet
Oh so beautiful and weak.
