WARNER BAXTER May 2015
Faith is the antithesis of proof,

Yet…
truth comes from
the mind and the heart.


So,
if your mind is full of truth
your heart will be filled
with faith.

In the desert
dewdrops are sparkling over cactus thorn
like icy diamonds this Southwestern morn
~~
warm winds through the Mesquite Trees
the sweet smell of sage lingers in the breeze
~~
the desert Sun climbs past invisible clouds
the burning sky melts the misty wet shroud
~~
the mercury is high but the air is dry
somewhere under the tangerine sky
life in Arizona

Kisses
lips together
foreplay of desire
amorous passion of love
Smooches

Love
libido overload
object of affection
eclipse  of  the  heart

A poets words have rhythm and flow,

the ink they spill is like a fine Merlot.

The best with body full and rich bouquet,

both have flair and finish like smoky Cabernet.

So before you write your next verse or rhyme,

red or white, don't forget to pour the wine.

Liquid
lavender eyes
behind a slight disguise
I feel the pulse with quickened gait
spell bound I stare into a certain fate
spirit image and magic call
into those eyes I do fall
lavender eyes
Liquid

Big brown
beautiful eyes
bewitching brazen eyes
I glance then gaze they hypnotize
her tawny ****** ***** bedroom eyes
they tantalize they mesmerize
sultry sweet smiling eyes
beautiful eyes
Big brown

Pretty
baby blue eyes
open wide to see inside
pulsing like ocean’s crystal tides
bottomless pools like Caribbean cove
hypnotized I fall deep in love
swimming in her soulful
baby blue eyes
Pretty

Spilling ink are poets minding minds of the wise
splashing paint are artists realizing their demise
William Shakespeare was called the poet master
Edgar Allen Poe  was known as the evil caster.

But what do I know? I am The  Wisenrhymer

The poet’s word is worth a thousand pictures I’ve heard
sometimes you can’t read the poem through all the words
rhythm and rhyme is just a sign of the times
or rant and rave is just a line of  the crimes

But what do I know? I am The Wisenrhymer
Definition- (according to Warner)
"an enigma of poetry, a poet of intellect without formal training"
