Poem -
Heavy Vinyl
Like 5 Pin it 2Vinyl black as Jet
On Whitby cliffsÂ
The needle smoothly lifts
ÂThen delicatelyÂ
touchces down like a 747...Â
To create as sound that's crispFeel it's contoursÂ
Rough yet smooth
Serenading your fingertipsÂHead backÂ
Eyes closed
Vibrations born from needles kissTranquil in this
Midnight hour
Cradelled in nostalgic blissFree me with your
Melodic powerÂ
My worries are eclipsedÂ

Syd, I like this write but have you ever been on a touchdown really smooth on a 747???? Just kidding. Love, Terry Kay
That's a good point actually Terry. I might change that line lol. It was late when I wrote this one. Thanks for reading and leaving feedback.Â
Take care - Syd xoÂ
Syd, I was just kidding. Please don't think I meant it as criticism. Love, Terry Kay
It's ok Terry I didn't lol. It did make me have a think about it though.
Thanks for reading. I appreciate all feedback and I can certainly take a joke. Definitely no hard feelings.

Leave it be, when I hear Metallica on Vinyl it's like ten 747s bombarding my brain.
​​​​​​Epic poem Syd, I loved every sound.
Cheers Gerard. I'm glad you could relate, especially with the 747 line. I've got to be honest...I never really thought of it in that concept. That line just rolled out of my brain.
Thanks for reading and leaving feed back.

Syd, as you might of thought I bloody love this. I love the depth of sound from LP's instead of digital. Does this mean your Darkside has arrived?
Great write mate
Nigel
Thanks Nigel. Yes it certainly does, although I was at a friend's house at the weekend and he was showing me his box of rare Oasis singles on vinyl. The box was heavy. Hence heavy vynyl. It just stuck in my brain and I thought it would make a good poem.
Thanks for reading and leaving feed back.

My Dear Friend Syd,
The "old" vinyl discs so moved me
Bringing "new" feelings for the songs
Much stronger than today's discs
So I danced the whole night long
Love,

Thank you for your brilliant comment Larry. Apologies for the late reply. I've been extremely busy lately. I'm starting to get sick of this work/life balance.
Take care - Syd xxxÂ
I like abstract and I have no idea what your sayin but I love itÂ
That's ok Edward. Whitby is a gemstone found in the cliffs off the seaside town of Whitby - North East England, it's incredibly black, like vinyl.
The poem is about how the needle lifts and then touches down again on vinyl, which creates sound through vibrations which travel up the needle.
I hope this helps.
Thank you for reading and leaving feed back. Much appreciated.
