Marilyn Lott Poems

You know, I’m just a shade tree horse
I think they know it by now
When the sun is blistering hot
I won’t go in the field like a cow
...

t was a cheerful summer day
When Sheila went to the park
Inside was a beautiful garden
The perfect place to start
...

If you saw a picture of beauties
From nineteen fifty-two
They have just what it takes
To get an approval from you
...

The sky is so beautiful
A painting God would admire
The colors are so brilliant
Much like a raging fire
...

It’s a world absorbed in an icy path
Everywhere that I go
The chill takes hold of everything
Laced softly with sparkling snow
...

We stopped at Apple Hollow
It’s a place you won’t believe
The fried pies are so delicious
What a talent to achieve
...

I’ll bet that you remember a movie
About a Yellow Brick Road
Dorothy was the little girl
And Toto was her dog
...

In the stillness of the morning
As the early sun appears
My pond slowly becomes visual
Such beauty it brings me tears
...

This land is what we are all about
Where we were born and raised
Whether in a small or large city
Or in open fields where cattle graze
...

It was 100 years ago now
When Oklahoma became a state
Folks gathered all together
So they could celebrate
...
