Writer's notes: SANCTUARY, Serenity is submitted to the Get Comfortable Challenge. The comfort of the home is described in four Diamante poems. Alternating between a Synonym Diamante poem and an Antonym Diamante poem.

What is a Diamante poem? Is a style of poetry consisting of seven lines. The lines form a diamond shape. The first and seventh lines have one word. While in the Synonym Diamante poem the first line word and seventh line word are the same or similar, in the Antonym Diamante poem the words first line word and the seventh line word are opposites.

Did you notice that lines one four, and seven are all nouns? In lines, two and six two adjectives are used with three verbs used in lines three and five.

A special shout-out to Denise Lindquist for sharing and introducing me to the poetry style.

Thank you for reading! You are appreciated!

P.S. In quick edit, the lines form the diamond shape, and saved the lines are alligned to the left edge.
