Marilyn Lott Poems

‘Moving Sale’ it said
‘Everything must go’
And there stood this little doll
That I needed so
...

It was a beautiful and perfect day
The sky was blue, not a single cloud
Soft and gentle my world was
Sounds were quiet, nothing was loud
...

I took a little drive one day
Out in the country where I live
The peace I felt as I drove along
Showed my world had much to give
...

To me the most simplest of things
Bring to life such a peaceful joy
Driving out into the country
Observing nature is what I enjoy
...

There is a plant we use at Christmas time
But I’ll bet you probably know
That it grows just around Christmas
And that plant is the Mistletoe
...

The sunrise from my window
Was astonishing to see
Like a bright boiling volcano
That’s how it looked to me
...

Don’t you love to wander
When winter has come to visit?
Your world wears a fur coat
And everything is exquisite
...

The night was laced with mystery
We weren’t sure what would arise
Spooky folks were everywhere
We were shocked at each surprise
...

Once again they’re on top of our list
They make wonderful decorations
They shine with strength and glory
They’ve made their declaration
...

It's snowing now, and so pretty
At my home in the Pacific Northwest
We don't get a lot of snow but it seems
This year it is Mr. Winter's quest.
