Marilyn Lott Poems

There was a lady in my life for years
Who was so very dear to me
One day I had to say good-bye
She was on her death bed, you see
...

It was fluffy like cotton candy
As lovely as anything I'd seen
A snow-scape when I awoke
Was exactly like a wintry dream
...

Pumpkins in the pumpkin patch
Their colors bright and bold
Biting frost on everything
As a transformation unfolds.
...

Father Flannigan is responsible
For a special home for poor men
He had a heart of gold, you see
And that’s how it all began
...

I'll bet you've never gone
To a Kiwi type of farm
It's really quite an experience
So unique with all its charm
...

You know, there are many folks
When they see a cotton gin
Can say, "I remember that...'
Telling stories from way back when
...

Uneasiness filled the air
As a stranger rode into town
Tension was stretched so thin
It was felt by everyone around
...

If you go outside my friend
You’ll take your life in your hands
For if you slip and fall on ice
It will hurt so much when you land
...

It came in without concern for others
It didn’t matter to whom it would offend
It was rude and cold and mean
A wintry blast is what nature sent
...

Do you ever take some time, my friend
To stop and remember the past?
Just like a familiar old movie reel
Memories that will forever last
...
