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 169 - Luck And Fun - 13/9/1986

Bateau Bay is a town of houses,
And beyond is a plaza of large,
Mostly on a flat plain fields,
It doesn’t look desolated, but we are in the outer bush.

I’ve met a young crowd, who are all friendly,
Friendly with the atmosphere, so cool and reasonable personality,
All look relaxed and can cope with half country and city life,
Surf, with hot weather is their main social activity.

Many cheers and smiles from the townsfolk differ from the boredom city faces,
I’m getting the feeling that who shows themselves, alive within our rat race.
It’s so good to have a terrific break from, ‘Sydney’,
I’m glad that this invitation has brought me ‘Luck and fun’!
