What a great person to have known! She sounds like a gem.You are a kind friend to pay tribute to her life well-spent loving everyone..Her eyes were dimming, but you described her as both a beacon and a star.
Sweet poem and memorable too!

I've written many tributes to passing saints, and some who lived fruitful and fulfilling lives. We all need a send off but not for the departed, but for those left behind. A beautifully modulated tribute to one who was loved, but now missed. Well done, blessings Roy

Marietta sounds like a woman who was loved by her friends as ill-speaking of anybody is a rare characteristic but one I wish we all could be remembered for. Well done!

How sweet and the same name as the Georgia town close to my own birth place. I'm glad to hear that she was more than just a bowling friend, and held a special place in your heart.
Sending you my best today as always,

A very lovely poem. Some people can't even get out of bed, let alone bowl.
She never spoke ill of anyone and everyone's friend. What a delightful
woman.

This poem, In Memory of Marietta, speaks of a feisty lady who chose bowling to keep her in with the in crowd. She's on the next plane and a new lane now.

Hello Jay,

This is a beautiful tribute to your good friend Marietta, she must have been quite a gal. It's hard to find good decent people like that anymore.

Take care of yourself, Jay...Bill

I do love this homage poem perfectly rhymed and written for a memorable friend which will be in heavenly peace and admired for her long living life's wisely wit and graciousness but above all for her friendship towards her neighbours. Great structural rhymed stanzaic poem and narrative storylined content.

This is a very nice way of remembering someone. I especially like "aged, youthful way. I like the fourth stanza very much, but found the third a little awkward.

A nice tribute to a friend who has passed away. She sounds like a lovely lady. She was a friend to everyone on the bowling teams. Always a smile speaking well of everyone. She will be remembered fondly.
