Notes About The Poem

Dolly

I’m not offended by all the blonde dumb jokes
because I know I’m not dumb…
and I also know I’m not blonde
                                              ~ Dolly Parton

Dolly
Buxom and jolly
Not easily offended nor dull
Just look at her skull

Dolly
Oh by golly
Begging her Parton
Nashville hair choice…pure mock sun

Love the quote and the poem. She has practically single-handedly helped increase the reading level in Tennessee.

Hi Michelle, Dolly is not dumb by a long shot. She’s a good singer ,song writer and a business woman. And she’s so down to earth. Good job. Have a wonderful day and weekend:-) Alexis

She could certainly be a soloist in a choir of angels, but someone else should do the talking! Enjoyed!

Enjoyed reading this one. Good choice. I think she would be a very nice person to know in person. Your presence at my page is assuring. If this one is for a contest, reads like a good contender to me. Way to go. Sara
