Marilyn Lott Poems

We baked our cakes and decorated
As careful as could be
Then placed them on a table
For all the world to see
...

Along the red dirt roads
You’ll find this time of year
Huge machines that cut
The wheat fields fresh and clear
...

You know, the different structures
That were created in the past
Were done the best possible way
It’s amazing how long they’d last
...

I was standing in line in Omaha
And the guy in front didn’t move
Guess I wasn’t paying attention
For he seemed unnaturally smooth
...

I have something to share with you
I think you ought to know
Never would I steer you wrong
It’s something I believe in so
...

Well, I’ll tell ya something folks
I’ve been around for awhile
And my sturdy handsome self
Has always brought a smile
...

Oh, you should see my mountains
I know you would be impressed
Rugged strong and amazing
It’s the mountains that I love the best
...

I’m watching people by the fence
They can’t take their eyes off me
Of course I stand out from the others
I am the only one they see
...

My owner is amazing
I have him trained so well
He thinks I’m incredibly amusing
You know, I can always tell
...

When I was a little girl
Thanksgiving was about
Getting together with family
Delightful smells of my mother’s
...
