My good friend =kiwi-damnation is hosting a poetry challenge of sorts.

During the month of December we are to write a certain form of poetry each day!

:heart: The news article! :heart:

For December 5th it was Diamonte

Diamonte --
n. The purpose is to go from the subject at the top of the diamond to another totally different (and sometimes opposite) subject at the bottom. The structure is:

line 1 - one noun (subject #1)
line 2 - two adjectives (describing subject #1)
line 3 - three participles (ending in -ing, telling about the subject #1)
line 4 - four nouns (first two related to the subject #1, second two related to subject #2)
line 5 - three participles (ending in -ing, telling about subject #2)
line 6 - two adjectives (describing subject #2)
line 7 - one noun (subject #2)

I started out with what I wanted to do, but it was hard finding words to describe "up" and "down".

I like it though.

Yes, the title...is...corny. ;-;
