Hi Liz. Great job on this post for the club. Your diamonte progresses nicely through the form. It shows how most of us evolve over time in our own growth. Enjoyable read. Marilyn

Thank you for your appreciative review. I immediately fell in love with the Diamante style of poetry when I learned about it to teach my 6th graders.

Love your diamante poem. (If you center it, it would look more like a diamond.) I haven't seen one of these in a long time. I'm happy to learn more about you - an athlete, artist, writer and counselor! And so glad that the hard days are in the past and joy is in the present.

I have learnt a new form of writing poem, the "Diamante" comparing and contrasting two different situations or actions. It made an interesting read, and the flow was smooth making the poem easier to follow and understand. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

You have obviously had experience writing Diamantes. This is a very good one SHOWING us how you went through a metamorphosis. I especially like your choice of antonyms. Rod

Very interesting, Liz. The form intrigues, I like it.
Well, you described yourself as you see the transition of yourself. Very good. From an insecure, a bit frightened young woman to the self-assured, successful, and mature woman that you are now. The turn in the middle, the fourth line.
It might even better to center the text, so the diamond shape comes more forward.

Thank you for the lovely review. I immediately fell in love with that style of poetry that I learned to teach my 6th graders. It may have lost its form when I posted it. It was originally a perfect diamond. I will see if I can fix it up. Thank you

Welcome, Liz. You can edit it and choose the option "center text"

Thank you so much. That looks so much better. This is good to know. Phew.

Welcome again.
