Sorrow and Joy

Sorrow,
broken,anguish,
weeping, suffering, yearning.
Dark, grey, golden, bright,
laughing, smiling, touching.
Divine, glorious,
joy.

Hi Cory :) it's been a while since I last read a diamante and I truly enjoyed the contrasts you put in for sorrow and joy-- very fitting :D

Cool, you went from one emotion to the end of the spectrum. Great for the diamente form.

cory I just luv the Diamonte form .. I wrote one a while ago too.. this is a super piece expressing many emotions..luv.. thankxx for your sympathy for my lost pet.. he was so sweet.. and was failing this past month.. I am shaken but my family and other pets keep me from thinking he is gone..my husband went to the pet store and called me to tell me he was going to buy a kitten but I am not ready for one just yet... appreciate my friend..luv..
