Laura Mckenzie Poet Sonnet

Hypnotized

Sweet love sweet taste of your lips 
Lavished expressions turn my heart into an eclipse 
Distant echoes vibrate your pulse 
I am consumed by your aura and can’t think of anything else
 
Just the mere sound of your voice
I fall into a silent lovers rejoice
Left over scents on hats 
Coffee cups with rings of black

Dazzling love oh hear me call
To what is this causing my heart to be enthralled?
Be it dark or be it light 
Sustaining the loveliness and its blight

Dance away now I shall dance so high 
Feel the enchantment of your love tempting me sigh

Robin L. Gass January 30, 2009 at 8:00 PM The sentiment in this sweet poem is so endearing, Laura. I love the lines "I fall into a lovers silent rejoice" and the closing line. Both represent those feelings so well. Thank you for your thoughtful comment. Love, Robin
