Trash to cash
That's what recycling is
Imperfect veggies to table
That's what wise farming is...
Shopper tosses away aluminum cans
Making it the land fills problem
People can recycle, foil, siding, copper
Glass, plastic bottles, veggie cans, so go get'em...
A farmer knows his food is good
A little blemished, odd coloured, ugly
The insides still tastes good in soups
Even in a lively tossed garden salad...
When young, some 50 odd years ago
The perfect veggies went to stores
Were sold at extremely high prices
I was allowed to take the imperfect home
Saving my family a lot of much needed $$$$...
People going around touting a saying
Waste not want not, and they're the first to waste food
I look for the not so desired food and dented can
A good meal will put the hungry in a great mood...
I could tell you a good a deal more
That would take lines and lines of poetry
Digging for "Free" aluminum cans, blemished food
Sounds like easy money and an easy meal to me...
