Marilyn Lott Poems

Did you ever stumble on a ghost town?
They are so interesting to see
I can almost hear the spirits
Talking ever so softly to me
...

Back in the old days in England
A place very popular was the pub
Ale was served at local taverns
Right in the midst of the hub
...

It is a magnificent old grist mill
Nestled within the trees
It sparkles on a sunny day
Or a sweet spring time breeze
...

My Magnolia tree is just spectacular
In the south is where it originally grew
So tall and sturdy and proud
I know you would think so too
...

There is nothing more beautiful
Than a canyon that is red
Glistening in the sunshine
Oh, so much that can be said
...

All colors and fluffiness
Were the cats on display
Serious now
Not time for cat play
...

I found a place to have some lunch
Warm and captivating I found it to be
The food was absolutely delicious
It was the perfect place for me
...

So beautiful and impressive
The Clydesdales have such grace
A purebred you can tell for sure
For his lineage you’ll surely trace
...

I see the forest floor this morning
Tiny twigs and branches there
A sprinkling of gray rocks as well
Nature’s precious things to share
...

What does poverty really entail?
How bad does it have to get?
For some a bad economy
Is poverty from where they sit
...
