This etheree, Strong Together, has the proper line 1-10 syllable progression and makes the statement for a bond that aches when isn't actually holding two people physically together.

Hello anonymous

Nice entry for the Etheree Poem writing prompt contest. Good syllables count and connection between lines. The presentation is nice.

Good luck in the contest.

simple yet powerful. The repeating of the word "gone" took me out of the poem for a second. Was thinking you might have missed a rhyming opportunity by replacing "gone" with "not near."

This is so beautiful! You are a very skilled writer indeed. You don't see this kind of intense love as much now a days. So if you have experienced it, you are truly blessed. Love it!

    Thanks, I was thinking about my husband when I wrote it. A hopeless romantic I guess. Thanks again for reading. :)

A very well-written Etheree about time that stands still when lovers are apart. We can only think about that person day and night and whatever we do in their absence we share with them.

This is nicely stated. The etheree is similar to the nonet in one respect a triangular shape should be the aim of the writer along with correct syllable count. It is all too easy otherwise. This won't be mentioned in the regulations but some of the judges may be looking for it.

You have so nearly got that shape here it would be worth tinkering a bit to get the shape smooth. For example 'and I lose all fear' can be made that little bit longer without affecting the syllable count by writing 'and I'll lose all fear'. Similarly, 'when you're gone can be reduced by writing 'with you gone'.

These tweaks would smooth your hypotenuse a bit.

A well-written poem in the etheree format. It is gentle and lyrical celebrating the closeness and unity of love. The accompanying photo is well chosen.

Dear Mystery Writer,

OOOohh.. very nice! I like the images here - we are good as individuals, but some of us are even better when connected to our 'better halves'. I get it. Thanks and good luck (your syllable counts are all just right, btw.)
