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 111 - A Phone Call Away - 11/6/1986

How close does she feel from me?
Is an answer I quite know well?
Feeling the touch of her exterior body,
Rubbing against mine: to fulfill one’s wishes.

The atmosphere is different,
We both don’t feel like solid cement.
There’s one thing we love to do,
And that is using all means of communicating.

Her cheeks feel warm and round,
Her happiness, one that is joyfully shown all around.
Her clothes, loosely being walked from place to place,
Her mannerisms are all in, only thoughtful grace.

Dictating expressions of daily on comings,
The small bird that is still humming,
The innocence of life’s expectancy,
Crowding and drowning me with such beaut thoughts.

Imagining her physique and figure,
Touching, just touching myself at rest.
There’s no solution to depart these wonderful emotions,
As we in company, share each other’s search.

During these ongoing composition of thoughts,
I awake from a self-hypnotic dream,
And listening to that feminine voice,
Asking me for an answer to a question.

Stunned, that had drifted away in dream,
I replied to her so that she could understand.
Slamming the telephone, annoyed with myself,
I realized that I am thankful that Carla is a phone call away.
