DIAMANTE
Another form of fun poetry based on shape, just the one in this case, a diamond.
The purpose is to go from the subject at the top of the diamond to another totally different (and sometimes opposite) subject at the bottom. A seven line poem, shaped like a diamond.
Top both opposites, bottom, change of subject. Anything other than the latter then shaped or concrete as per the rules for this type of fun arrangements could be used.
