Goodbye Dear Heath
David In Indy:
Heath Ledger
April 4, 1979 - January 22, 2008
How does one say goodbye to a close friend? Words fail me. I never met you in person, and yet I knew you all the same. My heart feels crushed and it bleeds with anguish over this terrible news.
I am a man of few words, but my emotions run deep. I'm sorry I don't have the right words. I'm sorry I don't know how to properly tell you goodbye. Maybe I don't want to. Not yet anyway. Maybe I'm not ready.
The world lost a good friend today, and Heaven gained a beautiful soul. Every time I look up at the night sky, I will see your beautiful face painted in the stars. The angels break into joyful chorus tonight because you are among them now.
Thank you Heath. For every laugh and for every tear, I thank you. You will live in my heart forever.
So lay down your head sweet baby. Fall asleep in the arms of angels, and may they carry you safely into Paradise.
Goodbye Dear Heath!
......and I think it's going to rain today. :'( :'( :'( :'(

A Song for Heath
As I walked out on the streets of Laredo,
As I walked out in Laredo one day,
I spied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linen
Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay.
"Oh muffle your drums, then play your fifes merrily
Play the Dead March as you go along
And fire your guns right over my coffin,
There goes an unfortunate boy to his home."
"It was once in the saddle I used to go dashing
Once in the saddle I used to go gay,
First down to the dram-house and then to the card house
Got shot in the breast, I am dying today."
"Get six jolly cowboys to carry my coffin,
Get six pretty maidens to carry my pall,
Put bunches of roses all over my coffin,
Put roses to deaden the clods as they fall."
"Then swing your rope slowly, and rattle your spurs lowly,
And give a wild whoop as you carry me along,
And in the grave throw me and roll the sod o'er me
For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong."
"Go bring me a cup, a cup of cold water
To cool my parched lips," the cowboy said;
Before I turned, the spirit had left him
And gone to its Giver --- the cowboy was dead.
We beat the drum slowly and played the fife lowly,
And bitterly wept as we bore him along,
For we all loved our comrade, so brave, young and handsome,
We all loved our comrade although he'd done wrong.

Thanks Front-Ranger!
Very interesting!!
...
Heath's passing is on national news all TV stations in Canada and also on the French ones!! They all show Heath and talk about him about his role mainly in the Brokeback Mountain film!! Of course, on all TV stations channels in the USA!! Likely so, too in every country throughout the world!!
My wish: Be wonderful to have Bm II now... in hommage of Heath, may I hope.
May his life and star shine always in the Universe of Love desired!!
Hugs!!
