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 88 - The Open Door To Endless Love - 21/5/1985

With tender kisses, embarrassingly,
I will smother love, so steadily.
Mixed with care, thoughts and trust,
To the loveable girl, who is to me a “big star!”

My moments with her are very precious,
For our love will be continuous                     
With no end to end,
And no curves around the bend.

The young energetic life, in “Cathie”,
Self-responsible, head high on her shoulders.
That cute little face, the fun-loving one!
For the girl is very pretty, tenderly.

Has my heart found the treasured heart,
Of a life time… so tender and young?
For the last couple of weeks, I have thought of,
Nothing but this beautiful girl, ‘Cathie'.

Age does not matter to me at all,
As we all age, right from the time we’re born,
For myself, I’m old in thought and certainly young at heart.
Neither of us being older or younger will ever tear us apart.

It is a written fact of gospel truth,
For a man to love his woman.
Not to mistreat and to respect her,
While the woman also loves her man, the same.

Be it happy, excited and anxious,
That the light is shinning ahead.
It is the open door to endless love,
Of which our ‘real life’ cherishes.
