Best Records Poems

Take me in
Cater to my every whim
Show me what it is to be a child
For I feel I've only ever ran wild

My unfair reviews leave all mouths agape 
I'm surely wrong, need to rewatch tape
Composite detracts from all that good
I'd splice and edit more if...

Vinyl records are still around. 
They carry some amazing sound. 
If you are able, 
get yourself a turntable. 
The music you hear will astound....

RECORDS OF PAST HISTORY



The past wasn’t all that great and the so-called “achievements” - say - 
Of the past pale when we compare them to our capabilities today.

Egyptians built  the fearsome Great  Pyramid weighing 6 million tons in 20 years;
We  dump ...

Elvis Presley Died.

I’ll always think of you
now I’m wild in the country,
you know I’m just a poor boy
in Memphis Tennessee,
lonely without my lover doll,
trying to patch it up,this life!
Paralyzed I am, yet please
tell me why, when one night
with you...

excavation underway
'neath the paw of Egypt’s Sphinx
is Cayce’s prediction coming true?
will the meaning of life be found?

on an astral plane there can be no lies
no secrets, no masks, no questions
thoughts and fears of every creature born
may yet be uncovered

no man or woman will be greater...

Broken records been playing.
Playing there for your Pain.

They're played there
By the great teacher,  Ma$ter No Name.

Where for art thou Blood Stain?

I'm the water of the mother of a New age 
Day breaks, 

only the chosen will be allowed passage
On the mother ship's baby carriage.

Excuse me, Mrs. "NASTY"- DMV lady 
Whatever be your name 
I see those tickets are addressed to me 
But I assure you, I'm not to blame 
You see, I've been away for twenty years 
In Jail: Behind the bars 
So, there's no way that I...

The Records of Every Summer
David J Walker

I thought the last cold day of May
Had come and gone 

50 feels like freezing when
100 was last Friday 

I thought I was the authentic gardener 
Who held each calendar day 
within an experienced heart

the halcyon mornings are a...

I never thought I’d keep a record of my pain
or happiness
like candles lighting the entire soft lace
of the air
around the full length of your hair/a shower
organized by God
in brown and auburn
undulations luminous like particles
of flame
 
But now I do
retrieve an afternoon of apricots
and water interspersed...

NO ONE WANTS TO LIVE IN A COLD HOME
from the album "Heaters for Sale"
by Not Paul McCarney 

No one wants to live in a cold home, cold home
Uncle Albert says you should go home, go home
Turn the heat up or sit by the fire
Toasty as...

A dream for many a watch for some  
The Olympic journey, Here it comes!!  
It was in Paris, few days ago  
It rushed a shiver from the head to the toe.  

Flags carried through the Seine river  
The horse was...

Hopin' and flyin' high
Still somethin' was amiss,
Just you know why ...
It had to end like this

Not fade away a shining star
With three million records sold,
Yet, silent fell his guitar ...
And, glasses rest infold

A sound never to be heard 
Soon after that final show,
Boy, give us...

Last night I dreamed I owned a Beatles album from their break-up period that was never officially released and even most Beatles experts didn't know it existed.

 I had one because I'd had a lover who had partied with Paul and he gave it to...
