My name is James Ketchum. Heath Ledger touched me in a very significant way and I cried myself to sleep the night I heard of his passing. I wrote two poem as a tribute to this great man and to show that he made a mark in this world.

This first poem I wrote the day I heard of his passing and is a tribute to the movies he was in and the man he was


Heath Ledger

He was an actor, that's what he wanted to be

Not a heartthrob, not just eye candy

He was a knight, a skateboarded, a patriot

Name the hardest role you can, he could do it


He showed how deep he could be

By becoming an Oscar nominee

In Brokeback Mountain he pushed the envelope

When he played a gay man trying to cope


He had so many roles, portrayed so many characters

Like in The Order when he solved mysterious murders

Soon Batman will know him as a villain

He burst on the screen as the legendary Bob Dylan


He is the James Dean of my time

What I can do for him now is give him this rhyme

To show that this man earned my respect

You'll be hearing about him for years I expect


He'll be remembered; a knight, a soldier, a villain, a folk singer

His face on the screen will forever linger



Here is a second poem. I wrote this on the incredible performance he gave in The Dark Knight. I'm sure that role will be remembered as one of the great performances in Hollywood history. Seeing him in that film just blew me away.

Heath? Joker?

A clown can be a frightening thing

With a smile on its face and a voice that's menacing

A clown can send shivers up and down your spine

A scarier image you're not likely to find


His face is white his hair is green

Brought to life what's not yet been seen

"Why so serious" I can hear him call

But in horror often comes astonishment and awe


A performance that would shake the world

A talent that would come un-foretold


He'd already made his mark, but nothing like this had he done

After death he stands above everyone

None can do what he went out doing

A painted face with a song without singing


An art, a craft, a talent of giants

A simple man turned to a creature of defiance

In death he will go down in history as a villain who mastered all odds

And with this one role cheated the gods


And made one more move to show the world what he could do

Went out with a bang like is capable of so few


Batman will someday be forgotten, but Joker never will

Heath and the Joker they'll be with us forever still

And never will people wonder, "What is this man's name"

He was Heath Ledger and Heath Ledger he'll remain

to the whole ledger family: other than you no one has mourned for the loss of heath stronger than I! Heath has deeply touched my heart from the moment i first layed my eyes on him when i saw him for the first time in his movie the dark knight! unfortunetly some how i never knew of him until that day i first watched dark knight and at that moment i didnt even really know how he looked like underneath all the joker makeup he had on but i had loved his acting and fell in love with him! he is so brilliant, charming and entertaining and funny! and he seemed to be highly attractive to me even with me not knowing how he looked like under all that joker make up and he is the only male actor i know that could still look that good even when dressed up as a villan such as the the joker! lol! wink.gif anyways, after watching the dark knight i instantly fell in love with heath and wanted to explore his movies more to get to know him more and to finally get to see how he really looked like without joker makeup on and my mom had introduced his previous movie to me, brokebackmountain and i rented the movie right away and knew right off the bat which one was heath! it's those eyes! heath's got the most gorgeous eyes, i know those eyes anywhere! after watching yet another breathtaking movie of his and finally got to see who he was i had fallen for him more and more and got addicted to watching every movie he has ever made and i then the next following week told a friend about my passion for heath and i then was updated on the painfull news that as i finally got to know of this amazing man he had already left us and went to a better place. I was devestated! and i still am till this day and always will be! this is a loss that no one will ever fully recover from! It's so not fair that he left us all so soon! heath is a hollywood hero and he always will be! and even know i never got to meet this gorgeous man and breathtaking actor, i know in my heart that heath was a person with a huge heart and a gentle spirit! heath is missed very greatly by more people than the world holds! I'm very glad i finally knew of our heathy but very sad that he's not here with us! my heart goes out to you all and especially his beautiful daughter who looks exactly like him, matilda! wow! she looks exactly like her daddy and if i ever met her in person i would just hug her and cry! you can deffenetly look into that little girl's eyes and see heath looking straight at you! i also know that heath's soul is within this amazing little girl! i know matilda was heath's everything and always will be and i know your daddy is with you everyday matilda! he is looking down at you and smiling at you everyday! you were tattooed on his chest over your daddy's heart which is a very beautiful thing that he had your name tattoed over his heart cuz you can tell just by that how much you mean to him! I mourn for heath's wife as well! you were married to an angel and the bestest, most sexiest actor ever! i cant even imagine what you must be going threw and my heart goes out to you matilda and heath's parents always! god bless you all! to heath's parents:
i never met heath but i can honestly say that i love him unconditionally and always will! your son is more than a amazing actor he's also an angel! i guess that's why he left us all so soon? anyways, my heart goes out to the both of you because i can only imagine what you must be going threw because i miss heath more and more each and everyday and i never even met him but watching his movies makes you feel like you know him tho you know what i mean? he's such an amazing person that i cant even express it! to heath:I love you forever and ever my dearest heathy! r.i.p. my love!
