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 33 - Binding Love - 29/12/1983

The last couple of days,
I have been acting so strange.
I have felt jealous and pity,
And somewhere in-between that range.

Is it that I am not so mature?
As what I feel I should be?
As, “ Boy you are younger”.
This has been told to me.

My love for her, is a love that’s binding,
And Michelle wants to love and live with me, as well.
We have no definite intentions of separating ourselves, from each other,
Nor do we think of ourselves, just as lovers.

I might not listen too carefully, to the words that are told,
But now, I listen with ears open so wide.
I might have broken some new times of importance, to us,
As I pick up the remainders and look up, towards the stars.
