Shar, Do You Hear a Bell

Shar, do hear a bell, I know you do, it is ringing so loud, and it is ringing for me, and for you. Our friend had to leave, Heaven called his name, and without any warning, the angels came. He had a special place, in his heart for us, and told me many times, there are not many you can trust. He was always there, and he listened with love, and he told me so often, do you feel my hugs? I miss him so, as I know you do, from across the miles, a wonderful friendship grew. Tom we love you, I know you can hear, this poem is for you, from two ladies that love you so dear.

Another amazing tribute to Tom. I know i only got to know Tom in his last few months, but he brought so much joy and laughter into the day, that it seems I knew him a whole lot longer. :) I miss him, and I know he loved this poem, as well as you both for being so special to him. Rest well, Tom Bell, PS misses you. love, Kristin

What a lovely, lovely tribute to a dear friend, Tom, that you loved. Those of us who joined the soup later on, missed the special joy of meeting him through his poetry, but "between the lines" I have heard enough to know that he was someone very special. I am so sorry he is gone...I wish I could have had the honor to know him too. God Bless. ~ Carrie

He was so rare, beyond words. Hugging you sweet friend for your beautiful tribute, and I thank you for including me. Feeling him ever so near. Feeling your love and so happy we are friends.
