Notes About The Poem

What Goes Up Comes Down

rise,
             upward, cumulative
      ascending, climbing, levitating
  surge, crescendo, nosedive, slump
     plummeting, dropping, sinking
                plunge, descent
                          fall

                          full,
                    total, whole
      jam-packing, loading, extending
entirety, aggregate, cavity, nothingness
         draining, unloading, purging
                     void, abyss
                         empty

Edward, wonderfully penned diamonte x2, I wrote a poem once with the same title but mine was about my cat that went up and up my curtains walking the curtain rod for a bit and then came crashing down, peace _Constance

I feel how the words describing rise levitate and words that speak of fall plunge. Full feels total, whole--empty drains. Brilliantly done --two picture frames in words!
