Hot and Cold

Hot
                 sunny, heat
      scorching, burning, sizzling 
  Flames, lava ,frozen, antifreeze 
      snowing, freezing, hailing
                Ice, cool, chill
                       Cold








* This poem was inspired by L. Milton. He excels
in the form; I saw his amazing poems in the 
Diamante form and decided to give it a go.

Ah, thanks, Alexis. Sweet of you. Your diamante has a problem in the fourth line. The first two words of the line should relate to "Hot," and the last two words should relate to "Cold." You can easily fix this. Wonderful! I am so glad you gave it a go! I hope you will fix the glitch and enter it in Caren's contest.

Is this for Caren's Spring or Summer diamante contest? If so, it looks like something that will impress Caren.

Beautifully done my friend--like the way you transitioned your imagery--hot to cold.
