Records

Records

 

Let’s listen to those old records.

To those who remind me of you.

Let’s listen to those amazing chords.

That represent us two.

 

Life has a surface noise just like the records.

We are listening to.

Once a scratch is made it is impossible to

undo.

 

And when you listen to it.

You remember what you have got.

And when you listen to it.

You still feel the affection.

And when you listen to it.

You know it is not a distraction.

 

You still keep that record with the imperfection.

Even though you do not listen to it a lot.

It’s still the most important piece of your collection.

 

And when you listen to it.

You remember what you have got.

And when you listen to it.

You still feel the affection.

And when you listen to it.

You know it is not a distraction

Not anymore.

I'm very surprised to read such an art. It's quiet unique & way different than common poetic art; written with inner feelings of rejoice.. by your soft hand... with the fleck of your aromas. Good to read!

"You still keep that record with the imperfection." This line's very good, but if you want to make your readers reading it with flow then you may remove "the" from the line then the line would be like this:

"You still keep that record with imperfection." The rest of the poetry's very good. It makes me checking out some of your earlier stuffs either... so, i'd be looking forward to reading you.

This one is my favorite of yours now. Very good with a rhythm to the piece.

Is it a coincidence that this reads and sounds in my head like a song and its about records? I don't think it is. I think you created a lyrical piece to evoke memories of songs and chose the repetition of the refrain/verse to visually remind the reader of song lyrics as they usually appear on the sleeve of a record/CD.

"Life has a surface noise just like the records." I thought this was very clever and poetic -
Again... I like this write of yours.
Well penned.
