Life

l                     life
              happy, blissful
         thriving, wishing, playing
birthdays, graduations, funerals, wakes
        falling, decaying, cursing
            punishment, pain
                    death

I love the colorful yet simple words expressing the transition of a person's short life to death. This is definitely a good example of a diamante!
