Russian Stamp Collecting Poem by Marilyn Lott

Stamp collecting is quite a hobby
A glance into world history
Researching another country
Uncovers so many mysteries

It’s not just the understanding
Of what a culture is about
But learning to speak the language
Will be a challenge without a doubt

It’s a wonderful undertaking
And one that is well worth while
The amazing Russian stamps
Have an interesting and unique style

I enjoy the stories they tell
With description on every one
They go way back in time
When stamps had first begun

So if you’d like a hobby
You might give this a chance
Russian stamps hold fascination
With their mystery and yes, romance!
