Rest Easy My Friend

Rest my friend truly you deserve some peace 
Life sometimes hard but you always did maintain 
Your friends carry a memory of  you that  won't cease

A peculiar fellow quickly your anger could increase
How adamantly you would continue  to explain
Rest my friend you deserve to get some peace

Your passion for life could never decrease
Even after suffering so much agony and pain 
Your friends carry a memory ofyou  that won't cease 

From every lecture I could take away a piece 
Always knowing there was something to gain
Rest my friend trulyyou deserve some peace

I continue on now still searching for my crease
We have a friendship that death cannot contain
Yes I'll carry a memory of you that won't cease

Truly our friendship never faltered in the least 
Even now I can still hear you complain and complain
Rest now my friend truly you deserve some peace 
Your friends carry a memory of you that won't cease 


R. I. P.  ARTHUR GLOVER
