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 215 - Fulfillment In Happiness - 19/10/1987

Our hearts keep on pumping to the tune of merry words,
It is this day that the sun shines its bright rays of light.
Whilst the night sparkles with stars that glow forever more,
The darkness of which, reminds us that ‘badness’ is about.

We, as each human want us to be glorified, in every way,
Yet we cannot take the unfortunate answer as ‘failure’, at task.
Is it that we do think of ourselves too much, as to say?
Or is it our trusting ourselves of reaching individual goals?

Where does our strength lie, in reaching our priority opportunities?
Do we realize that we tread on others, to completely wipe them out?
Are we (whom of which we believe in), love others in a so alike fashion?
Why is it that we treat others like dirt and yet don’t like the same treatment?

Standing up in such a comfortable position,
Both moving from side to side or forward and backs,
May seem to be an easy task to do and take on,
But as soon as time passes by, you collapse and fall down.

This just goes to show you, that your strength in life is not by yourself,
The people around you, that helps you when you fall down flat on your nose,
Are the much personal strength you gain and how you perfect on them,
Is the ultimate result of your life’s fulfillment in happiness.
