Best Mesmerized Poems
I paint your beauty in my heart and mind
in swirling strokes of wind squalls and light;
the youthful lift of limbs of early spring,
with summer’s joyful red, with fall's surprise.
I paint you in wonder of winter’s white
through snow storm's chill and my loving eyes.
I paint you beyond the blue pain of the past
with the gray of fear the future hides.
Jealous of luring space and power of time,
yet, with all the hope, the joy, the ache
as seen in the strength of my trembling hand;
I’ll paint you again my child, mesmerized.
After: L'Enfant au Tablier Rouge, 1886 by Berthe Morisot

Verse
No litter, no rules, no society scent,
just peninsula pure soul content, ideally lent.
Awed and wowed with arms stretched wide,
I stand on Key’s narrow road, on narrow land,
surrounded by two sea gems and their sand.
This dream road sea-drowns, down south’s horizon
and thrills my innocence without even trying.
Western growth is dense and a fence in Gulf’s yard.
Her wave’s sirens are blue-salt diamonds
and I am mesmerized by their titan climbing.
East unfolds turquoise enchantments unmarred –
The playful, poetic Atlantic off guard,
bewitching and hypnotic in regard.
Dazzled, I sit in the sea, shoulders deep.
Powder soft ocean floor thrones me nicely.
I could sit the day in this sea so sultry.
Flirty, allusive, emerald joys leap
as languid, luscious wet meets sun’s glee,
sending my senses high where memories keep.
These expressive ocean blues and greens
are of patterns and ways, I have never seen.
Sensual and graceful, each sea touch is delight –
as soothing in feel as pleasure in my sight.
Before me spreads endless bounty of ocean glean.
Under Florida-kissed skies, I sit wet and serene.

"Mesmerized"
I am
all of the
colours
in your mind
we dance our
fresh canvas
flirtatiously
brushstrokes
caressing
inquisitively
flowing
we blend together
effortlessly
Mesmerized
You are
all of the
colours
reflecting
in my eyes
Double Jeopardy
a cool seduction
hypnotized

When love captures your soul
Putting everything on this amazing roll
Spirit unfolding right before your eye's
Your heart is pounding totally mesmerized
Seeing your life become synchronized
With all that lives so deep inside
While we are learning to fly
Shooting our love across the sky
Spelling out all the answers why
Coming together as one is the best kind of high
Knowing commitment is never saying goodbye
The only tears falling
Are the ones that come calling
Of our bond to each other
That makes us both want to hover
Around all the love we have yet to discover
Believing we are forever lovers
Like when a whispering wind captures your heart
Living all of life's amazing parts
True love means we will never depart
The kind of love we have known from the start
Love is what we make it
So we should never fake it or break it
Rather make it our own
The kind of love that never stops growing
With piece of mind of both of us knowing
Our love is always flowing
In a place, our hearts are truly glowing

Rhyme
I am mesmerized
by ever-changing wisps
of clouds
meandering across
cobalt-blue
Hawaiian skies.
I am mesmerized
by whitecaps dashing
against coral breakers
phizzing out in the sand.
I am mesmerized
by colorful phrases
strolling across white
unlined pages.

You’ll never know how much you speak to me
I just can’t fathom the beauty that I see
Your heart goes out in everything you do
Your mind spews rain of music so true
I am lost in the light of your unimpeachable words
Everything around me, in me, feels so damn absurd
I futilely try and fight a battle never won
And realize that I am already gone
Ooooh
I am mesmerized
Oh, I can’t be surprised
That I am mesmerized
You can see it in my eyes
Am I blushing?
Am I rushing this through?
Are you laughing?
Oh damn, he knows it’s true
I am mesmerized
Oh, I can’t be surprised
Oh so mesmerized
He can see it in my eyes
Knowing you’re far from mine
You’re words still stop all time
Because you’re so damn sublime
You’re simply out of this world
So just get out of my mind!
Oh! I’m mesmerized….
If there was a way inside your mind
There still wouldn’t be me to find
You’re moving so blasted fast
And I just can’t reach the mask
Man, it seems so useless, to try and make you see
That I want you beyond all reason, knowing it can never be
As you thrill the crowd, as you kiss the girl
I’ll just stare at your pictures, wishing I was her
Ooooh
I am mesmerized
Oh, I can’t be surprised
That I am mesmerized
You can see it in my eyes
Am I blushing?
Am I rushing this through?
Are you laughing?
Oh damn, he knows it’s true
I am mesmerized
Oh, I can’t be surprised
Oh so mesmerized
He can see it in my eyes
Knowing you’re far from mine
You’re words still stop all time
Because you’re so damn sublime
You’re simply out of this world
So just get out of my mind!
So lost, so gone, this war was never won

Lyric
Oh, she's beautiful
She , the only girl who left me, mesmerized .
I sat and watched as she brushed her long
golden hair. She smiled politely at everyone.
She saw good in everyone.
Many said she was the daughter of the ocean
as her hair swayed with the waves in perfect harmony.
She would lay on a rock singing with the most beautiful voice , just as I was about to talk to her. I woke up.

Selling melting stars to taste, their flames; beautiful
Be her flesh perfumed, silhouette, and dim this light
Ruby red lips in luscious; her piercing emerald eyes..
Coffee coloured cream as she these, silk splendours.

How many have dreamed in its magical light
Imagining a world not of their making
Where troubles are few and wishes are granted
And peace is there for the taking….
How many lovers have basked in her glow
And to each other made promises so sweet
With this gift of light from the heavens above
The moment of joy now somehow complete …
How many children have looked at the moon
Hoping to see that fabled man’s face
Imagining he’s there looking back at them
From that far away mysterious, magical place...

smoke curls,
dividing us
into lonely
sentries by the fire,
as we watch the embers die,
in silence
black words
drifting upwards
from the ashes,
cast shadows on the moon
stinging the eyes of the night
with despair

Mesmerized by the Monarch's flight
Flutter and swirling in the air
It danced around me so light
WIth happiness in its flare
it landed close to me a lot
Circling around me today
Taking rests in each peaceful spot
I watched it lift me on its way
My head turned with each move made
Such celebration to see
Not a reason to be afraid
Mesmerized by serenity
My friend went along it's journey
Leaving me standing in its wake
Altered by swirling memory
With nothing left at stake

Beguiled by her delicate beauty
Mesmerized by her charm.
Her soft flowing hair like spun gold,
as she danced in the summer sun,
As graceful as a floating feather.
Brighter than a diamond, the sparkle in her eye,
her smile set my heart on fire,
Her voice as melodious as a symphony,
She remodeled my style and changed my looks ,
Turned me into something she chose me to be,
And incredibly decided that I suited her perfectly.

I can mesmerize you before I truly come out.
Then, you will know what I am really about.
Articulation is just one of my strong suits.
But, don't get it twisted, I will come right at you.
You may not like the words that come off my tongue.
But, I carry a big stick and a big 'ole gun.
So, whosoever out there that has a problem with that.
Please meet me on the other side of the tracks.
I'm a professional brotha with a streak of dirt.
And, I really don't mind putting in a little work.
I could turn that into my after hours hobby.
Repelling down into an upscale lobby.
That is how easy a person could be mesmerized.
And, the last thing they would show is silver-dollar eyes.
Because, they know the reason you are actually there.
An unexpected situation, with no time to prepare.

Sit quiet; look deep into my eyes,
Find my center and drown yourself there.
Slowly let go..let your channels run free..
Look deep; let me have your power.
I am with you; I am holding your hands,
Let your dark pain flow to me..
This magnetism, locks our eyes firmly..
I invade you and let you live freely again.
This is based on the work of Anton Mesmer
A German physician who lived 1724-1815
His early work led to the development of
Hypnotism by J Braid later in the 1840's
