Marilyn Lott Poems

Standing at the water’s edge
He was shaken to the core
For the one he loved had died
He didn’t want to live any more
...

It's time to make a list once again
Of the goals we'd like to achieve
Our hopes and wishes of tomorrow
For we always must believe
...

How I do enjoy so much
This wonderful life of mine
I travel down the red dirt roads
That make my life so fine
...

It was white and fresh and new
As it blanketed the land
It looked like delicious sculptures
So refreshing and so grand
...

Wild Mary was an exciting gal
For those who watched her show
She wasn’t just an oil well because
There were enormous gases below
...

A senseless act of hatred can change
Everything in a horrifying minute
It is impossible to understand
And so many lives are destroyed with it
...

Do you ever take some time, my friend
To stop and remember the past?
Just like a familiar old movie reel
Memories that will forever last
...

Never let your dreams go
Never let them stray
But face each new tomorrow
With just a hint of yesterday
...

It started with a little smile
A flirt and bat of the eye
For Elaine saw the man
She wanted to be her guy
...

As I passed through British Columbia
The Yukon wild and free
I pondered and I pondered
A question was plaguing me
...
