Marilyn Lott Poems

I know that city folks
Seem happy with their lives
They settle in all snuggly
The husband kids and wife
...

There’s a world that you can enter
A place where cowboys dwell
It’s a wonderful museum
Showing western tradition as well
...

The storm raged in over night
Yes, nature had a plan
It brought terrible conditions
For plant, or beast, or man
...

The gentle people who live there
Are like the flowers we grow
They’re sweet and beautiful
And a little colorful, you know
...

He takes a giant paintbrush
And swipes across the sky
The beauty of those colors
Are captive to the eye.
...

I visited a house the other day
It was built a long time ago
It was made of mostly sod throughout
Preserved and kept to show
...

She’s the Coal Miner’s Daughter’s daughter
And what a joy Cissy was to meet
She gave us smiles and hugs so freely
So open and friendly and sweet
...

There is nothing quite as brilliant
As sun on a red dirt hill
The peacefulness surrounds me
As I hear a songbird’s trill
...

I did some traveling
A few years ago
I wanted to meet family
That I really didn’t know
...

There is nothing like a meal
From a flaming hot campfire
It cooks the kind of food
For which you’ll never tire
...
