Poetry Writing Learning Story

In Term 3, I was learning to write different types of poems. 
The poems we learnt about have special features. 

One of the poems I learnt about was a Diamante

It’s special features are a diamante is a seven-line poem that
is written in the shape of a diamond.  There are two opposite
words described in the poem.  

For example, dark, light

Line 1	Word 1
Line 2	Two adjectives describing word 1
Line 3	Three ‘ing’ words related to word 1
Line 4	Two nouns related to word1; two nouns related to word 2
Line 5	Three ‘ing’ words related to word 2
Line 6	Two adjectives describing word 2
Line 7	Word 2

I tried to write my own one.  

Here it is.

Red,burnt,cold,wet
