""Seeds" by   Teebra Woods

Energy transforms

another is born

 

seeds were planted

the farmer raved and ranted

 

other deeds forgotten

only weeds grow in soil so rotten

 

some though have a flower

lured by the power

 

at times one bite is all the need

to realize it is time to feed

 

would you like an apple

fresh from the can

 

"Man"  by  Teebra Woods

say can you spare a dime?

a scared greasy hand reaches out

you try not to look at his eyes

but do

he is

as you expected looking deep into your eyes

it almost feels like he looks into your heart soul mind

your mouth is half open ready to say no

but you pause

he says nothing

just stands there with his hand stretched out to you

well

what are you gonna do ?

 

"Shelter"  by  Teebra Woods 

yesterday life seemed so simple

I knew my position

I knew my surroundings

sure I was ready for change

but I felt kinda sad when the Hatch was opened and we were let out

suddenly the world i once knew seemed so small so confined

outside of the unit was unlike anything I had imagined

land extended as far as i could see

but what now

there was a few who claimed to know what they were gonna do

so they set sail to find the future

i wondered what life was like before all of this

I was told at one time there was over 6 billion of us

I can't even picture a few hundred

so many questions

must find the answers

 

 

 

 

"The Sweetest Fruit"  by Teebra Woods

 

How long travel this dream do I

time will start again by and by

as the river shall flow well onto the next morrow

so shall this task grasp in joy or in sorrow

why not just build a ship

for surely wooden pride will grip

at the waters and tame the wild wave

a captain of captains none so brave

but the journey is lost

and the greatest cost

and I have asked the wise questions beyond such attempts

stay you far from the beaten path and mind of the divine invents

to have the greatest tears

the greatest fears

running still stabbed in the back

the taste of life as more now lack

clutching the earth for resolution

soul search have you found solution

reach into your pack of memories and see

know what affects of thousand journeys can be

so know you too

the greatest fruit

the sweetest smiles

that lifted a damaged soul for one thousand miles

know you many new questions

afraid be not of the power to ask
