Marilyn Lott Poems

The sun’s shining bright
The clothesline is full
It makes me feel happy
Not a moment is dull
...

It seems it comes so often
A fresh New Year once more
So many make their lists of
What they want to have in store.
...

His mind slowly gave way
It left in little spurts
To see him this way now
Oh Lord how much it hurts
...

How special it was as family and friends
Gathered to welcome husband and wife
Happiness was felt by everyone
As they start this precious new life
...

It took place back in the 1930s
And it was called the dust bowl days
Folks tried to scrape out a living
As dust storms left their world in a haze
...

It is a tiny little town in Oklahoma
Canute is the Indian name
Built out in the red dirt
Where lottery brought it to fame
...

When you travel ‘cross the country
You see along the roadways
Bright and cheerful flowers especially
In the warm spring and summer days
...

There is nothing more beautiful
Than a country sunset
The colors in the open sky
Are as lovely as they can get
...

I took a little drive one day
Out in the country where I live
The peace I felt as I drove along
Showed my world had much to give
...

Autumn is my favorite time of year
The leaves are what fascinate me
Going from green to bright colors
Such a beautiful sight to see.
