Marilyn Lott Poems

They are good and honest folks
Their land has so much to give
They grow crops across the prairie
In the good life that they live
...

Our Hydro fun went on
As the townsfolk continued to gather
The parade was led by a police car
We were not detained by the weather
...

Most of us don’t really analyze
What our feet have to go through
We just know that the things are there
Doing what we want them to do
...

Pass the biscuits, Charlie
I know someone baked ‘em up
We’ve been hangin’ round all morning
Waiting with our coffee cup
...

They’re getting ready for festivities
Everyone is so excited
Donned in ancient brilliant costumes
And you too, sir, are invited
...

It seems like only yesterday
That mom carefully hoed the ground
Making rows long and straight
She was the best gardener around
...

They were so beautiful, these ladies
Just like the movie stars
For a selected beauties chosen
That were truly the best by far
...

I was headin’ for the Lucky 13
And it was a relaxing day for me
Those ‘ole red dirt roads
Took me past some spring-time trees
...

I’ll tell you of a place to go
On your next family vacation
When you hear how wonderful it is
I think you’ll give it consideration
...

This time of year always brings
Many remembrances back to me
My family gathered closely
Singing carols by the tree
...
