Of such a wonder

Of Sinatra and his song

Of unmatched talents

Of nostalgic strains

Of strong bidding for the top

Grabbed honors all round

Note: I had written this without looking at Kris' posting prior to writing. Pardon me for the similar utterances. I decided to let it be without having to post another one. Just shows how 'strangers' can evoke an immediate reaction to Frank's song!
