This is well done. Not everyone gets the point of Diamante poetry. I learned about it while teaching my 6th graders poetry. It has become my favorite even beside Haiku poetry. By separating the themes you really show the contrast in the 4th verse. Well done.

I like your poem, but it calls for no image (pictures). Do you have time to edit it? It is not always easy to remember the instructions. I sometimes write them down, so they are on paper.

Great job with your diamante poem, here. I got a charge out of the grin, smirk, scowl glower. That is a great line of poetry right there.

Wishing you the best of luck with the voters. :))
