FROM THE POET

This is a series of poems written by John Svododa over a number of years. There are times of peak-where numerous poems were written & there are also times of lows where there are long periods between each poem. As the author is trying to reach a goal of 1001 (and then retire!!) it was never envisaged that this would be done over a short period of time. Poems can be humorous, ridiculing someone or something, show a meaning of hurt or love or even project feelings that not necessarily be directed to the same person/thing, can be a reflection of life or to be life. Most poems are trying to send a message to the reader be it not understandable or nonsense.

The idea of this poet is not to have any ill feelings against anyone but to be read by young whom can learn about life – and by the elderly look back at what could have been. Some are very personal- but who cares when you are currently living in a life that has total enjoyment. Suggestion is not to criticize but to take in the enjoyment of creative poetry make it meaningful and thus may be you can be an author.

Poem Number 288 - Spending Spree - 19/5/1988

I find it easy (just like anybody); to  spend the money you save,
Especially when you can only save a certain amount of your 
      earnings,
But when you are working and living for two people,
You have to work out, so both your priorities are right.

 Mostly you save to buy the goods you wish to purchase,
And save to utilise the days when turned  into long lasting rain,
When you're on an average income: just ending on  top after all 
      the bills are paid,
You can manage your funds properly without any waist.

 But since you start on zero, from the start of your marriage,
And just like every else in society, you wish to live comfortably,
Then it makes it that much difficult,
To arise up above everyone, financially in life.
