“Autumn Color”
by Teebra Woods
Blankets of green are slowly
tucked in
replaced by the quilt worn and
thin
patterns placed colors collide
people picnic’s now subside
one last run
catch the sun
time floating away
few birds sing
what stories they bring
mine is the song of a new day

"Captain on a
Beach" Teebra Woods he
sat on a rock for hours watching the morning sun an
ocean stretched out all the way till tomorrow waves
would splash on the once great captain however
a swim would not his will afraid
of the sea how
can this be but
the mightiest of storms has this captain conquered alas
the least peril of journeys did take his ship and crew so
the captain swore never to return to the sea he
had been beat yet
if you look deep into his eyes there
past the gray past the fog lay
a spark the need for the open ocean buried deep in his soul

"The Evil Seed" by Teebra Woods
Once there was a farmer Who was quiet and mostly kept to himself A special garden was being prepared This was to have the worlds greatest fruits The worlds richest vegetables The freshest smelling followers The most tasty corn A fantastic secret garden The day had finally come When it would be time to plant the magical seeds However Along with the wonderful greens and colors The farmer planted a bad seed Just one He ignored the warning To see what would happen Time when on And all of the planets were in full bloom In another month harvest time would arrive Yet the one evil seed did not grow The farmer reached into the earth to see if the seed was still there As his hand dug into the ground A sharp pain stung at his index finger A quick reflex to pull his hand away Exposed from the ground What looked like a snake But it would not come out of the ground And for a minute would not let go of his finger The green snake turned out to be the bad seed It seemed to smile as it lapped up the blood from its tiny lips The farmer was amazed For the plant seemed to be almost animal like Part plant part snake (to be continued…)

"Door" by Teebra Woods won't
you let me in I
have stood in this rain all night talking
to you many
nights after
all this time your door is
only partially open just
enough to put my foot in what
are you waiting for what
else do you want from me don't
you think it's time you
open your
door and
let me in

"fly" by Teebra Woods i
wonder if i try can
i fly so
high that i may escape the
nightmare of this place can
i go to the land of the free can
I see the
long lost vision or am i just fooling myself i
believe i
can take the truth so please tell me because
if you sell me a
dream and
i happen to wake up the
sight of light will cut my
already weakened strength but
i will find a way to fly on try
to write another song of
future days to come because
i will rise above these clouds of
doubt i
have run the longest race as
rain slaps my face and
i can carry on as long as time rules and
i have tasted bitter tears for
many of my years and
sat in persecution with the fools

“as
dawn sings” by Teebra Woods riding
on wings of dreams galloping
through towers so tall bitter
sweet blend of themes unaware
that I may even fall high
on the crest for tomorrow’s sake my
grin kept ready climb
or jump into actions take unseen
courage ‘m steady renew
my mind the knowledge dance the
rhythm slides to sway my
smile set for this romance as
dawn sings on the day

"bench" by
Teebra Woods an old worn park bench has
many a story to tell of day light feedings
meetings and I'm sure at one time the
chime of a bell

"A Door From the Construction Zone" by Teebra Woods these
days will never return open
closed doors ever discern a
path for choice the
selection of singing voice predetermine
which play and act with
such a spotlight walk shadow tact train
thyself to speak with the rats they
are of close relations to the bats who
see not with eyes but listen to the hot night reveal
unknowing plans held so tight the
greatest of locks have at least one key therefore
open the door to set us all free this
is a job for the king know true that
only one will complete such a task and that my friend is you
|
"excuse me" by Teebra Woods and
so we meet again we
really got to stop meeting like this I
thought we had a deal I
would leave you alone and
you were gonna leave me alone but
some how we
keep meeting and
at such strange times what
are you trying to do to me I
am not mad I
don't hate you but we
are no good for each other so
why don't you go find your friends I'm
sure they are near by
