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 18 - Dream Of The Wilds - 2/11/1983

Trouble within humans, are mostly caused by,
Continuous friction between two or more people.
They cause the outer world some deep red concern,
While the whispers are realized, on a temporary basis,
Like the wind, blowing across the top of mountain ranges.

A volcanic eruption then co-insides,
While our minds are in a dream of wilds.
The pressure of verbal disagreance, seems to appear,
While the humour and laughter’s, all disappear.

The questions raised in each of their hands,
And the ones who started all this and to who to blame?

Most people’s predictions are right, but all are at fault,
It takes time for the cooling-off process to commence,
As it makes us all think, to see one cry,
Doesn’t matter who’s at fault, but how we feel ashamed.

Damned the world wars!
They bury our past.
We are both individuals,
Who of which, helps each other’s feelings,
With all kinds of decisions made.

We are the grownups and boy we certainly know that!
Now is the time, to do what’s best for us,
To think of our future family,
And happiness for the rest of our lives!

We do our parents a great deal,
But they must accept the way we decide to live.
If either parents want to help us,
We, of course wouldn’t say, “No”!
But, if we would like to do a lot of things by ourselves,
We would definitely appreciate, some little privacy.

Don’t take this wrong!
As we do not wish to criticize,
The moment we have any news, of any kind,
We would gladly share the news of any kind.
