A Poem by SimplyDisastrous

Summer

Sunny, hot

Swimming, surfing, reading

Cold, snowman, igloo, snowstorm

Snowboarding, skiing, sledding

Slippery, freezing winter days.

I like how you have compared winter to summer. I like how the colour fonts change to show you are comparing. Except you can read in the winter and the summer so I don't really know why that is there. But I do agree I think it is a diamante form of poetry.

Never knew of this form of poetry. Doesn't seem poetry at all, in my opinion. Intellectual poetry, may be.

I found the following irregularities in your poem as per the rules of diamante form of poetry.

The diamante form of poetry has the following style or format :
1. A diamante is a seven line poem, shaped like a diamond.::: you can edit the form and make sure it looks like a diamond.
2. Line 1:one word
(subject/noun that is contrasting to line 7) : line 7 ? Probably Winter ?

3.Line 2: two words
(adjectives) that describe line 1 :::fine enough

4. Line 3: three words
(action verbs) that relate to line 1 ::: this is also OK

5. Line 4: four words (nouns)
first 2 words relate to line 1 ::: this needs to be taken care of, since it doesn't relate to line 1
last 2 words relate to line 7 ::::gud enough

6. Line 5: three words
(action verbs) that relate to line 7

7. Line 6: two words
(adjectives) that describe line 7 ::: loose the words "Winter days"

8. Line 7: one word
( subject/noun that is contrasting to line 1) :: which can be "Winter"

Thanx for introducing to such form of poetry. However your poem is pretty straightforward. You can try give it a symbolic look.

The color is a little light for my taste... then again I am not wearing my glasses. This is pretty good, well done.

Very simple. Yet simplicity can sometimes survey our feelings better than complexity. A quick excellent read. Oh, reading can be done in either season so maybe you should change it to something else.

i love this, especially how without warning it goes from summer to winter, perfectly including aspects of the season. This is a very nice Diamante, excellent read!
