This is a well done diamante that reminds us that something hidden in the mist can be beautiful and inviting when you are out of the mist. Whether it is a big castle of a small bungalow.

The Diamante is one of my favorite poetic forms! I love the way you wove it masterfully with your castle to cottage theme.

Clever title to go with your poem. Very fitting!

Take care,

Rhonda

    You are indeed a friend of mine, Mr. Bob! I'm happy that you noticed that. This isn't a creation of mine but a poetry form gleaned from Shadowpoetry.com. Thanks for the kind review, Friend.

Yes a good poem with a great picture to set the story. With the fog keeping the clear picture obscured. Good job with the words used to follow the diagram, and yet tell a story also.

What a clever poem you've penned and I've not seen this format before. I liked the way it shifted as one mans castle was merely reduced to the size of a cottage with your clever twists and turns. Vivid and haunting to cozy and comfy...
I certainly didn't end up where I expected and what a nice surprise. With that said, I'll be on guard next time I see this form haha
Well written Luna A most disturbing fascinating read LOL
Cheers P

You're hilarious. I love the title of this poem, but let it not be a replacement for diamond jewels. Well thought out and nicely written. Great visual imagery created. Enjoyable read. Good luck in the contest.

Hi jeni,

I am anything but a poet. I have no idea about the technical aspect of writing poetry, or the various stiles, with the exception of a Haiku. But I do know what I enjoy reading. I lived in Europe almost 12 years and have seen and visited dozens of castles. You quite nicely summed up the various emotions one can conceive before and then, after entering such a foreboding structure.

I particularly enjoyed this one. Well done! Warmest wishes,


Alan

You followed the rules spot on and thank you for including the notes for us to read. I love the haunting part of the castle as the ones I thought of were elegant but you took it from there to the beauty of the cottage. Nicely done

This looks like a bit of an expansion on the Antonym poetry form. I think I like this one better. Takes a little more thought and creativity than just simple dictionary definitions. I think you have done a great with this poetry form and I really like it.
