Dow Wetland Morning Experience
 
By Bo Walter

Waking up in the morning wasn’t a blast
But working hard made it real fast.
Helping out the trees with all of the bales
With water and sun, they will not fail.

It was fun taking the tulis for shade.
Tulis aren’t heavy, so it was easily made.

The granola bars were really, really great –
I lost count of how many I ate.

This experience was so much fun,
It made me want to go out and run.

The environment is a special place.
Hope on board, and help us in this race…
The race to protect is pretty long
But who cares? ‘Cause it is so not wrong.
