Marilyn Lott Poems

You've heard the expression many times
About a kid in the candy store
But there's a place I'll tell you about
That has every kind of candy and more.
...

Did you ever see a barrel of wine
With the ruby red liquid trickling down?
Just the thought of the delicious taste
Brings a smile instead of a frown
...

I'm out in the field
Roaming the vast prairie
Waiting for somebody
To come and visit me
...

Of course it isn't a secret
That chocolate is the way
To send so many messages
You can change somebody's day
...

There are many thoughts I have
About raindrops as they fall
They can be large, wet and heavy
Or barely raindrops at all
...

The lazy time of spring break
Is here and just in time
Kids and teachers alike
Are more than ready, I find
...

I saw the sweetest little girl
Why, it was just the other day
With a pink little Popsicle
While the girl was out at play.
...

So many gave their lives
To keep our country free
But we rarely think about it
We treat it so carelessly
...

Autumn leaves that turn to gold
Flowers that are bright and bold
Tremble in the cooling wind
Messages the autumn sends
...

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