Ode to Pearl Heart

Ode to Pearl Heart <3 by Kodie Rollan on Sunday, June 13, 2010 at 4:13am And in an instant he's gone. Smiles and all with heaven just waiting As the clouds like soft cotton rest on his feet and letting him walk effortlessly For the threads like strands of hair are short And with a snap, a simple string all is lost Bringing tears into the eyes of those loved and lost No distance too great to affect the heart For the life of a young and gentle child Who with the graces of his persona Touched the lives of many people Never asking anything, but to return with a smile A loss so great that the earth lies still And people in awe stand with candles Mourning the passing of a great champion A link now missing in the chain of life Fingers shaking and hearts sink down But with smiles with only great memories Those that cannot be captured by pictures But rather captivated in the hearts Rest now sweet light, for the pain is over Walk into the pearly gates of life While the angels clap for your appearance And embrace the loving arms of the Lord And though the world is now mourning a loss You will always be remembered as a man left smiling And through broken bones and a shattered self Had a never breaking, never wavering soul So an ode to you my dearest friend We shall meet again when my strand is cut We'll share a glass of bountiful wine And bask in the rolling pictures of our lives For I have never known a thing truly good I have never seen a light so bright Except for one that helped me up So you shall e remembered dear Pearl Heart R.I.P. Patrick Zaldariaga You are one to be remembered as a champion, as a man who gave everything his all, and doing so with a smile on his face.
