A Mother's Diamante

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

    Hello Friday's Child,
    I will be waiting for your diamante.

    Hi Mompoet,
    You do have a way with words.

    Hi Lazy Daisy,
    I did have a wonderful day. Hope you did too.

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