Patty,

This is quite a task you've undertaken. But I enjoyed reading this poem and couldn't find anything to criticize.

The poem about a pet and the artwork complements each other. They are both nice and beautiful. The expression of the author about the pet is very real and truly what the pets are: "Cuddly warm,loving, licking, jumping, loyal, attentive...kissing" That's almost all what puppies do. Dom

Mustangpatty1029,

That picture of the puppy is so adorable. Her eyes are so very innocent. I can't say I am too much of a fan of this style of poetry, but it still fills me with warmth and a fuzzy feeling as I think about all of the words describing the best friend a person can have.

    Thank you SO much for reading and the generous review. The project to do all of these types of poetry will help me identify 'my favorite,' and I totally agree with you - this is a bit restrictive for me. ~patty~

Love the diamante style you used. I love writing them but haven't posted any. This was a sweet tribute to the little guy. He's a cutie. I think it would be good to either start with the fact he's a puppy or end with the word puppy so you work could stand apart from the picture if need be. Of course the yelping and licking suggest that that he is not a child. Enjoyed reading.
Merry Christmas.

    Thank you for reading and the generous review. Yes, I agree - however, one of the rules for the poem is that the first and last lines need to be synonyms or antonyms. I might look at my thesaurus and see what I come up with. Thanks for your comments. ~patty~

Hi,

I think you did the diamant© style well. Well written poem, with the emotional component very strong. I never heard of this style before, but..oh well, I just learned something new! thanks for sharing.

Without the picture, you would have completely lost me!!
"Pal ... licking"??? Perhaps your first word should be "dog" Just a thought. There is a problem when the photos do the "talking" for the piece, I think. Very sweet and I love the photo as well.

    Thank you for reading and the generous review. I will take your thoughts into consideration - this was a difficult poem to write because of the the 'rules' laid out. I'm glad you enjoyed the photo. ~patty~

This is so clever and your explanation is helpful for the rest of us to understand. I have discovered that on fanstory the poetry is fascinating. Well done.
