Comment from TAB_that's me

Excellent

You have good opposites here. My only suggestion would be to leave a space between the end of the 1st etheree and the beginning of the next.

Your poem gives sound advice to all those who have had the misfortune to have endured a 'love gone wrong'.

Find a new life, a shiny new love

Bury the pain; heal the wound, forget him[.]

* Seeing you have used some punctuation, perhaps it is best to end the poem with a period.

I think the double reversed etheree is the perfect form for this poem in which you speak of a relationship gone sour. Clever choice.
Thanks for sharing. I've enjoyed this.

Wow! really fantastic packaging from the outset gives awesome presentation and grips the reader. The script is fast and hard hitting so reads easily and delivers seemingly perfect presentation of this poetic style. Many thanks for a great read! HIS GRAYNESS; Vance

Hello, my friend,

Nice Double Reversed Etheree about love, falling in and falling out of love. It's quite a trip and seeing the poem's journey is interesting because that is how it goes sometimes. Good job honey.

Gypsy hugs

Hi Gypsy; thank you so much for the lovely review. Yes, this is often the path of love and for some, the continual path of their lives. Thank you for stopping by to read and comment,

What a clever post! Your choice of a double reversed etheree was perfect. So clearly outlining the start of a relationship, the death and then rebirth of a new one. Well done. Bill

Hey, Patty. I hope all's well with you today.
Excellent Double Reversed Etheree poem you've managed to write here; very well composed.
I can't say why for certain but the context reminded me of an old Bad Company song. It immediately "popped" into my head as I read this.
I'm sure you've probably heard it:

"Now I'm a man, I got my pride, Don't need no woman to hurt me inside,
I need a love like any other, So go on and leave me,
Leave me for another. Good lovin' gone bad, it's gone I say,
Good lovin' gone bad, now now now, Good lovin' gone bad, yeah yeah yeah
And baby I'm a bad man, Good lovin' gone bad,
That's what I want to say, Good lovin' bad, good lovin',
Good lovin' gone bad, Oh, baby I'm a bad man,
Good lovin' gone bad, Good lovin' gone bad,
Good lovin' gone bad, I'm a sad man, Don't stand in my way,
'Cause baby I'm a bad man, Yeah, yeah, yeah......."~ Bad Company

Nicely done, thanks so much for sharing!
~Dean

Hi Dean; I have heard that song and it definitely runs along the same lines as the poem. The poem grew from the story I'm currently working on about a love that started 'oh so sweet.' but took a wrong turn somewhere.

I appreciate your time to read and review,

A pleasure as always, Patty.
You are more than welcome.

Excellent double reverse etheree and it is almost like an antonym poem, first of love and the second of on your own. Verynicely done in structure
