Gosh, he was a great performer. Surely he's missed and his hair did look just as you say in your clever limerick. Congrats! Hugs, Carolyn

There was something in Petty's voice that reminded me of Bob Dylan, but Petty was a better singer overall. In my book, Dylan is pretty much unsurpassed as a lyricist. We actually "studied "his lyrics in high school. Had a very cool creative writing teacher.

It is now nearly a year since his passing away, Chris, and as you said he is and will remain a legend. Excellent choice for your celebrity Limerick entry. Regards // paul
