Marilyn Lott Poems

One day as I was strolling
Down a lonesome red dirt road
Something caught my eye
It was curious to behold
...

There’s a beautiful old homestead
Where I always love to visit
Puts you way back long ago
The furnishings are truly exquisite
...

The weather has changed
It’s been raining for days
The rivers and lakes have risen
Will it stop, will it stay?
...

We saw the most beautiful place
It was Marisgate plantation of flowers
I’ve never seen a more delightful spot
To while away the hours
...

I’ve never been in a hail storm
But I’ve seen the results of what
Those violent storms can do
Like a road with an enormous rut
...

Whenever I want to go to a special place
For lunch and a nice visit
I’ll tell you about a restaurant that is
Fun and the service is exquisite
...

Summer brings out the creatures
Along with warm lovely sun
The parks are filled with children
Having some out-of-school fun
...

There is nothing like the Azalea
So welcome in the spring
Colors that warm your heart
Excitement they always bring
...

Often times I notice
That when life is just too much
Many folks must escape reality
So they choose to embrace a crutch
...

Give me simple country living
Out in the fresh country air
So many places there is to live
But nothing really does compare
...
