What are some contrasting nouns?

I’m supposed to make a diamante poem, and I’m at a loss for things to compare. Help?

Compare,

Love, to taste

hate/headache,stomach ache

soft/ to a tingling feeling

Someone wished me well and it was like they were telling me they loved me.

the way someone says something, compared to the ocean waves, her voice was relaxing.

Contrast:

Good/Bad

Red/Green & Blue/Yellow are contrasting colors at the opposite end of the color quadrant, they compliment each other even though they are opposites.

Love/hate

war/peace

fun/bordem

ups/downs

freind/enemy

comfortableness/ nervousness

Hmm. Writing a diamond shaped poem can be a challenge all by itself, never mind adding the requirement for contrasting nouns. Or is that part of your assignment?

It’s easier to choose a theme for your poem first, and then look for the contrasts that will help you fill it out.

Once you do that, make your framework for the diamond, and fill in phrases. You’ll have to play with them to get it to fit, but it can be done.

If

finding

contrasts is

too challenging

try working with the

words that come

most easily to

you

Hah! I wrote that in diamante form, but when Yahoo switched if from the compose frame to the preview frame, it turned into a half-diamante. Sorry! Thought it might give you a giggle, but I guess technology frowns on giggles.
