i think tom is a being akin to the ainur, yet not of them, similar to the eagles. everyone else might not think this, many of you might think that he is a maia or a nature spirit or something else. but that is your idea of tom, and to you that is who tom is and will always be.

tolkien left tom a mystery to make a point but in doing so he left it up to each reader to decide for himself/herself who tom is. it is like tolkien said, he left blanks to be filled in by others.
