To the migratory bird,
whose never-ending flight
has been postponed
by an unforeseen tempest,
I say, “Fear not,
for your travels are not yet finished.”
To the mighty oak,
whose trustworthy branches
have been struck
by a simple bolt of fate,
I say, “Fear not,
for you have strength yet to be realized.”
To the seeker,
who inspired me,
but has found
what he did not seek,
I say, “Inhale deeply,
for I will breathe the inspiration back into you.”

This speaks so eloquently to what has happened to your dear brother, and to my dear son. It brings tears to my eyes every time I read it. Thank you!
