WARNER BAXTER Jun 2015

Somebody tell me what the hell happened to Cupid
everyone everywhere walking around acting stupid

There is no love anymore and the World is full of hate
come on people we need to change before it's too late

Politics and Religion all of us take up sides for the fight
well I've got news, your side, their side, neither is right

Doesn't matter if your a Terrorist killing or a Lawyer suing
be more than a human being, it's time to be a Human Doing

THE WINDS OF LOVE

WARNER BAXTER Jan 2014

THE WINDS OF LOVE

~
The desire of amorous emotion

existing in the night

~

WINDS OF LOVE

~

Dance

Laugh

Oblivious to the blaze of morning

Out Of The Darkness

WARNER BAXTER Aug 2015

Out Of The Darkness

There once was a time when I was lost
alone out in the darkness with high cost
I was unable to see so I kept my distance
was unwilling to be so I held my resistance
upside down, turned and twisted inside out
shattered and broken into pieces full of doubt



Evil is hate and fear is the cause to fantasize
faith is hope and love is the grace you realize
gather together all the pieces that were broken
now is the time for action not one word spoken
into the light and out of the darkness once more
there's so much more light than there was before

Where Angels Charm

WARNER BAXTER Jun 2015

Where Angels Charm

ashes to ashes and dust to dust
sleeping in a box so we don't rust

saving spirits the angels dream
selling souls the demons scream

dragon tears and angel's breath
bonds spirit, soul and life over death

with halo hat and angel arms
to take me where the angels charm

east of the sun and west of the moon
where cherubs float and stars are strewn

HEAVEN

of wine and rhyme

WARNER BAXTER Jul 2015

of wine and rhyme

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.

FAITH = TRUTH

WARNER BAXTER Jul 2015

FAITH = TRUTH

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.

ONLY FOR THE V.I.P. 2

WARNER BAXTER Jul 2015

ONLY FOR THE V.I.P. 2

I've seen things you'll never see
I've been places you'll never be
I've done things you'll never do
so many you wouldn't have a clue

behind velvet ropes only for the V.I.P.
private and hidden the public can't see

I know things you'll never know
I know things I wish I didn't know
laws broken without heart or brain
Immoral games they are all insane

Singers and Dancers and Players of guitars
and Hollywood's most infamous Movie Stars

I Am The Wisenrhymer

WARNER BAXTER Dec 2014

I Am The Wisenrhymer

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"

Make Me Feel Right

WARNER BAXTER Apr 2014

Make Me Feel Right

every day's sunshine
when I see your face,  your face
can't help but touch you girl
if I don't, I'll feel so out of place

can't wait 'til tomorrow
gotta see you tonight
when you hold me in your arms babe
you make me feel so right
make me feel right

every day's sunshine
when I kiss your lips,  your lips
that really moves me baby
takes me on a trip

been waiting such a long time
can't wait 'til tomorrow
gotta see you tonight
when you hold me in your arms babe
you make me feel so right
make me feel right

every day's sunshine
when I see your face,  your face
can't help but touch you girl
if I don't I'll feel so out of place

can't wait 'til tomorrow
gotta see you tonight
when you hold me in your arms babe
you make me feel so right
make me feel right

make me feel right

I've seen things you'll never see
I've been places you'll never be
I've done things you'll never do
so many you wouldn't have a clue

behind velvet ropes only for the V.I.P.
private and hidden the public can't see

I know things you'll never know
I know things I wish I didn't know
laws broken without heart or brain
Immoral games they're all insane

singers and dancers and players of guitars
and Hollywood's most famous movie stars

Insomniac

WARNER BAXTER May 2015

Insomniac

<> <>
counting sheep, to get to sleep,   racing the sunrise

Mr. Sandman, if you can,   sprinkle sand into my eyes

jeepers creepers, open peepers,   wide as deep blue skies

toss and turn, comfort concern,   no dreams or no lies

R.E.M. I wonder when,   even in dark's disguise

insomniac, heart attack,   sleeping would be wise

a wink, a nod, a sigh, a yawn,   still can't close my eyes

I am the one

WARNER BAXTER May 2015

I am the one

I AM THE ONE THAT…

                       Scares you to death
                        Will give you breath
                        Can save your life
                        Will twist the knife
                        Steals your thunder
                        Will take you under
                        Stirs up the ***
                        Will never get caught
                        THIS IS WHO I AM

I AM THE ONE THAT…

                       Lets the cat out
                        Will raise the doubt
                        You want on your team
                        Will push to the extreme
                        Has your back thick or thin
                        Will always win
                        You love to hate
                        Will set you straight
                        You can’t figure out

Because, I am the one it is never about
THIS IS WHO I AM

I am just like you
VISIBLY INVISIBLE

SO MANY THINGS

WARNER BAXTER Jun 2014

SO MANY THINGS

I've seen things that you'll never see
I've been places that you'll never be
I know things that you'll never know
I know things I wish I didn't know

I've said things that might not be true
spoken in private and out of plain view
I've done things that you'll never do
so many things you wouldn't have a clue

— The End —
