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 242 - Satisfaction For A Price - 5/1/1998

Moonlight nights cooling this heated earth from boil,
The continuous wiping of hands from sweated foreheads,
The thought of the cold liquids being poured down, on one’s head,
Melting your body down to bloodless skin- left to relax.

The sudden touch of tiny drops of rain,
Brings the body to complete saturation,
With drying off for just a while,
Or take a long walk that is for a few miles.

To have what you want is not always that easy,
To want what you have is a dream of itself,
Us people, we need those wants everyday of our life,
To make every moment as happy: for a husband and wife.
