Marilyn Lott Poems

Back Stabbing Betty haunted the cemetery
It was Halloween night and it really was scary

She saw Big Willie’s tombstone and wondered why
...

The history of this chair goes back
A hundred years and more
But I’m so proud that it is mine
For it’s a family heirloom I truly adore.
...

In my lovely and quaint rose garden
Where my brother’s roses dwell
I decided to build a sanctuary
Where water from his fountain fell
...

A family no doubt Mikey left behind
He was good clear down to his soul
But I know he’s in a better place now
It’s a good ending for Mikey the Mole
...

The excitement was rapidly building
Comfortable chairs were in place
They all were getting ready
Drinks were brought in by the case
...

Crunchy leaves beneath my feet
Tumbling to the path
Storms blow through as autumn comes
A taste of nature's wrath
...

My country drive was so relaxing
On this simple summer day
I stopped my work because
There was nothing I couldn’t delay
...

I just love to watch people
Wherever I may go
Driving around the country
It’s a hobby I enjoy so
...

It was a cold and drippy winter
Yes sir, that’s what we had
Sometimes it was so icy
And frozen up so bad
...

My daddy built a cupboard for me
When I was just a little girl
Ah, those precious memories
Sure sets my mind awhirl
...
