I Miss You Tom

I went to visit, a dear old friend, reading his poetry, how long has it been. Gone to a place, of slumber, and peace, I miss his words, and all he could teach. Many a night, we would sit, and write, his tales were many, this man was a sight. Although he's been gone, for quite some time, I know he is near, and always on my mind. Tom Bell was a man like no other. His friends were truly his friends, and he would do anything for any of them.
