You have an excellent presentation of your diamante contest entry. A clear reason for your placing in this contest. I love the picture and the way you changed the color to show which word was being described. I wish I had thought of something like that! Well done!

Yes, it is a choice we all have to make, but we must not forget that it is not the Lord's wish that any of us will parish, but have everlasting life. Great job, and good luck. :-)

Perfection in writing is hard to attain. Your writing so often achieves this and the way you have laid out both the words and the art are once again perfect
I enjoy reading you work

Your diamante poem is super. Good job with the format. The colored fonts really accentuate your words.

You handled the format well, and gave the reader a great deal to think about.

I see no changes. Best wishes in the contest.

Hi Portia,
This is a nicely done poem about heaven and hell using this form. I've never done a diamante poem so will look it up later and see if I can try to do one. I think you did a great job of it and the colors worked very well and the picture matched the poem perfectly as well. Best to you in the contest.
Blessings,
Anabella

Dear Portia...

What a PERFECTLY BALANCED POEM OF OPPOSITES.

HEAVEN OR HELL....
ONLY AN IDIOT WOULD CHOOSE THE LATTER!

Your poem says it all, but the artwork by google enhances it even more! What a great entry for the Diamante Poetry Contest. Good Luck and sure to Win -- even if it wasn't in a contest!

Sincerely,
Nan:))
