A Mother's Diamante

beautiful soft
living wilting dying
sweet temporal eternal love
struggling erring doing
joyful hopeful thankful
a mother's day

Hi Mompoet,
You do have a way with words.

Hi Aurora,
I learned of diamante poetry through my Son who is studying different poetry forms in school right now.

Hi Carol...

very emotive - you've successfully captured in 19 words what people have struggled to verbalize for generations! I love it!
