under the boardwalk
somewhere over the rainbow
down by the river
midnight at the oasis
walking my baby back home
on the road again
you were always on my mind
I will follow you

Scrambled, Not Fried 
That’s lovely! A whole string of special in-the-mind places, combining into one declaration.
Not only is your poem about places, Ron, but also about the way songs are linked to where we first heard them or where they gained significance. I get that a lot. An inspired capture.
Thanks, KR. And I woke up early, realized I needed to add Mr Nelson as the penultimate line. Amazing what a little sleep will do for you, eh?
I picked those pop songs as soon as I started reading. Well done indeed!
This was wonderful. Each song evoking a different memory and a feeling tying them all together.
I give up. No getting away from you. 😉
Very clever/ evocative use of old pop songs
Moments captured in song titles….all very familiar to me…and the journey came alive!
Very nice! I could hum along!
A perfectly captured moment. I can hear the music played by the steps… and the thoughts.
Anchored in music and lyrics.
This was a fun poetic playlist! Music so often accompanies some of my big moments in life. I hear a bit of a song lyric and I’m back somewhere in time.
Nice one Ron. Happy Wednesday
Much❤love
All those musical lines! Sweet! ❤
Gosh, I think every line of your poem is on my Spotify playlist!
Certain songs play and I am transported back. How can it be that long ago?
Like all the good songs that could get stuck in my head all rolled up together.
the last line invokes Death Cab for Cutie for me ~
Oh yes …. yes.
Love this, and all the songs you included!
