Calling the Kettle Black

An Eagle whose name is Don Henley

To media isn’t so friendly

     He wrote “Dirty Laundry”

     Left press in a quandary

But sneers at the poor from his Bentley

Some poets have a knack for composing limericks ... I'm NOT one of them, but you obviously are!!! The Eagles are one of my favorite musical groups ... and you've hit the nail on the head when it comes to Don Henley. You have a gift! Jack C
