Writer's notes: My SEASONS poems are in diamante poem format. Because trees play an important part in the seasons, the leaf poem was included.

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.

    I really love this poetry style with the alternating order of parts of speech. I get a strong feel for each season with the combination of nouns, verbs, and adjectives. I feel that it might be challenging to write and plan to try it soon. You have crafted a beautiful poem.

  • Lovely words and love the format
