Then when i met Ben
His calm was like balm
i need to mention that...
He was fine and still had shine
Many months have past
And Sir Ben is still a blast
Though his pen is pretty fast
Yet his written works do last
He always has lots to say
Yet he's quiet that others may
He rejoices in making a way
That another might make hay
Now that i know Ben
He is mentor and model
And did i mention that...
He is fine and still has shine?
