Everyone should STOP  – (LH up in a ‘stop’ gesture – Hold) and LOOK  – (RH above eyes as if trying to see in the distance – Hold).

It’s not a picture in a BOOK  – (Hands held like a book)

It’s ALL around us every day  – (Arms by sides to sides, palms facing outwards – Hold)

LITTER scattered at our feet  – (BH to sides with palms facing outwards  – Hold)

BAGS  – (RH clasped by LH) of RUBBISH  everywhere  – (Clasped hands thrown over right shoulder, as if holding a sack – Hold)

BROKEN things dumped  – (BH ‘break’ imaginary item in two – Hold)  HERE – (LH to side, palm facing outwards) and THERE  – (RH to side, palm facing outwards).
