Congrats on your prize! (review updated)
Poignant and elegant--stunning choice of foregone gives the perfect nostalgic flavor--you nailed the title. Clever internal rhyme--song/long/gone and slip/lip adds a nice touch!

Thank you so much. I think it's so interesting that one song can make me think of one group of memories while a different song brings back a totally different set of memories, all from the same time.. Music is pretty awesome like that! Thank you so much for your review and comments. Hugs.
Comment from CA Keller
Ahh...this poem relaxed me. Isn't that the truth of old songs, lyrics, that you find roaming through your head unexpectedly? Sometimes whimsical, sometimes joyful, sometimes sad...but all worth remembering. Thank you for this, all the best in the contest.

Wwonderful poem here, LeAnn. It is true that memories and music are tied very tightly together , I believe. I believe you should change your spelling of "wistful" in this write though. You now have it as "whistful" Bless you, Bob
