A very good first attempt to write a calligram. It is very creatively done. The words are all about the antique automobile that you have created. The rhyming in your little poem works well too.

This is a very cool poem.
I've never seen a Calligram before. I like it.
And thanks for the information on the form of the poem.
Altogether, well done.

Wow! I am impressed. I don't know how you turn the words sideways and in a circle. Do you do that in Word? I know you can do a lot in there, I just haven't learned it.

I love the words too:)

Tom, I like this and it amazes me when you come up with the Calligram. May you and your wife have a bright and blessed Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year. Patricia

I enjoyed the poem's design and the words. They are great together.

I have seen something like this called Shape Poems. The words make the shape of whatever the topic is such as if you were writing a poem about an apple. The words would make the shape of the apple.

Good job. Thanks for sharing.

This is very unique and interesting. It is a form that I wouldn't be able to do. You did it well with apt words to suit. Well done, Tom.

A new format of writing poems. It is very interesting. Thanks for providing the reference. The theme of the poem is nice and is illustrated in an excellent way.

This is very good. You should have thought about creating a contest for a Calligram, this would have won for sure. I got to give you credit for creativity and the time you put into this. Well done.

I liked the general layout that complements your poem perfectly. I don't completely understand what a Calligram is. But I can Google it. Might try one as well but it does not seem easy.

I'm so glad sunnilicious introduced you to this form and you nailed it! I can't imagine how long it took you to create, but you are a person of great patience and always up for a challenge. You are no "ham" but someone I'd seek in a jam! Many cheers and have fun with your next calligram too, since I know you can't write just one!! -Joan
