Diamante Poem

Hello everyone!!
Today I want to talk to you about a diamante poem. 
First, I will introduce you about what a diamante poem is. A diamante poem is  is a style of poetry that is made up of seven lines. Also the words form a shape of a diamond.
Like we know, other poems are thousands of years old but this diamante poem is only about 40 years old!! This was created by an American poet, Iris McClellan Tiedt.

Today, we wrote a diamante poem in class.
If you want to write it, it is very simple.
You have to write in this form;
Noun
Adjective, Adjective
Verb, verb, verb
Noun, noun, noun, noun
Verb, verb, verb
Adjective, adjective
Noun

I wrote a simple diamante poem.
It is about Mickey mouse and Minnie mouse

Mickey mouse
cute          funny
fixing   playing  working
boy    man      girl       woman
cooking  running   jumping
pretty      beautiful
Minnie mouse


This dosen't take a lot of time.

Thank you for visiting again and see you next time!!
