This epitaph, Here Lies Madame Marie, has the proper theme and reminds all of the readers that if the death card is turned over, do not jaywalk on that day.

Comment from bob cullen
Second line, I think 'the' before fee needs to be omitted. And one other question. Was the truck driver her husband? A clever little ditty. And one other question. Were you the psychic who suggested I'd never find success as a writer. You got that right!

Maybe. but I've received that same comment often and it's been proven most accurate. But I keep writing. I suggest you do likewise.
Comment from Rosemary Everson1
It would be a good thing even for a psychic to hold her head high when walking; being she was hit by a truck, she must have been thinking too much and too hard.

Congratulations on your well-deserved win. Your clever epitaph/story poem is humorous and reads like a limerick. Poor Madam Marie wasn't psychic enough to save her own life. Well done.

Comment from Debi Pick Marquette
Congrats on your first place! Awesome poem and Epitah and awesome job, Jess. Would you believe I am out of sixes already. Yesterday and this morning were busy ones or you would have one. Great job here, hon. I love how you bounce it across the page so smoothly with your meter and rhyme. As beautiful as one of these can be.
How are you doing? I have been thinking about you a lot.

This made me smile. I do love irony. This was witty and pithy and perfect for an epitaph. Congrats on winning the contest, and having the poem recognized.

Comment from Teri7
This is a very cute and well written epitaph about the psychic that didn't know about the truck was going to hit her. Very good descriptive words and very nice imagery. Best wishes in the contest. Teir
