What a beautiful tribute to Joan dear amada! I did not realise that her days were past. How sad and tragic. So many great poets have met their doom. I can think already 4.
Thank you for sharing!
Blessings and a larger than life hug!

Me too, Amada...

I so appreciate your wonderful poetic tribute to one of the most gracious and talented poets on this site.

I also enjoyed your metaphors, alliteration and fond memories of her worldwide travels and journey home.

Sincerely,

AnnLinda

What a beautiful tribute to a writer and your friend.
Your words not only introduce your reader to JoanE, and how beautiful she saw the world in pen.
The last line of your poem is deeply moving.
Regards,
Mary

I did not know her well, but what I read of her work was impressive and carried me along with her, allowing me to see the world through her eyes. I am so sorry for her passing! Condolences to family, friends, and every poet...for (to paraphrase) the loss of one poet diminishes all of us!--Karenina

This was a lovely tribute for a fellow writer and a friend from online. I hope you did meet with each other and enjoy each others company. I am sorry for your loss of this friend.

Her poetry warmed so many hearts with the telling of her travels and sharing them with us. She took us to places most of us will never go, and what a pleasure it was too. This is another lovely poem to go in her book of tributes, Amada. Well done. :)) Sandra xx

What a very nice tribute to a special person. I did not know her but I did perhaps read some of her writings if she was on this writing website. Your words flow very well with a good rhythm that's easy to read. Best wishes.
