WARNER BAXTER May 2015
She starts with lightning, blinding light
then comes her roaring thunder might
search for shelter to hide under
then more rolling roaring thunder

(bridge)
She is the storm in human form, in human form she is the storm

She pours like rain, the pouring rain
She is the sleet and snow and pain
so cold so cold, so damp so damp
turgid, frigid vicious vamp


(chorus)
I can’t get through the dark side of you
I can’t get through to you
She is the storm in human form
I can’t get through the dark side of you
I can’t get through to you


She is the storm that blacks my sky
frozen chest no breath for good bye
can’t think, can’t feel can’t find reason
there is no refuge from her changing season

(chorus)
She is the storm in human form, in human form she is the storm
I can’t get through the dark side of you
I can’t get through to you
She is the storm in human form
I can’t get through the dark side of you
I can’t get through to you*
(repeat chorus)

Spinning
swirling slashing
powerful   tornado
lightning bolts thunder and sirens
Spinning* wind sounds like a train head Spinning
homes  spun  to  the  land  of  Oz
a whole town blown away
dizzy head still
Spinning



Grinning
dazed and confused
does not look like Kansas
told to follow  the yellow road
Grinning at the yellow road still Grinning
horse  of  a  different  color
merry old land of Oz
in awe always
Grinning



Winning
contests are fun
I am proud of my work
gold silver bronze honor awards
Winning is goal humbled if not Winning
Rictameters  are  fun  to write
thank you host and judges
I  am  happy
*Winning

A senryu chain to my Mother
~^~
Moms are Heaven sent
angels on earth Mothers are
love like no other

~^~
she bends gracefully
but she breaks so easily
takes my breath away

~^~
alabaster skin
body to soul perfection
she smells like cookies

~^~
sad rain chills my bones
dewdrops mixing with my tears
Heaven holds her now

~^~
Heaven is her home
halo hat and angel arms
cherubs float on clouds

~^~
a message from Heaven words from my Mother
she always had the last word
and still does those words are
"Mother's Day"
~^~
~~^^~~
you are days my glowing bright daze
you are my night my shinning armored knight
you are my son my daily rising sun
you are my peace you are the final piece
Every day is Mother's Day

~~^^~~

The Jamaica Jewel's sails are full with skull & bones on high mast,
canons thunder, I pillage & plunder with a trim keel my ship is fast.
My boots and vest are leather black with sword & buckles of gold,
when sunlight reflects, landlubber's quake & their blood runs cold.
I always dress in black except from my hat a plume of vermillion,
A pirate's chest full of treasure and pieces of eight by the million.

Just the sound of my name sends shivers to timbers of all,
I am Capitan Blood Head, on mermaid lips and ports-o-call.
On sand & beach Capitan Blood Head wanted alive or dead,
where rivers become waterfalls posters for bounty is what's read.
So the legend lives on, from Key Largo, San Juan & St. Kitts Cay,
from Trinidad and Tobago to Saint John and Montego Bay.

Don't you dare cross Capitan Blood Head and his Scallywags,
and don't even think about The Capitan's favorite Sea Hags,
or walk the plank to Davy Jones' locker you sank. AGRRR!!!

there once was a lass from Manhattan
she wore petticoats made of red satin
for ******* she modeled ****
'til her life was violently subdued
and her name was Dorothy Stratten

there once was a man from Rome
who's head was shinny like chrome
gave the world spiritual hope
was given the title of Pope
now he wears a hat like that of a gnome

there once was a boy who was a freshman
who's study habits were a mess-man
would never graduate from Yale
he surely wind up in jail
always hiding away from the arrest-man
