The Nurturing Light<P>You are the sun shining brightly upon me.<BR>The light that provides warmth and nurtures me<BR>I awake each morning knowing that you are always there.<BR>The mornings grow cloudy but I can still see you.<BR>There have been cloudy days before.<BR>The clouds grow thick now and the days grow colder.<BR>It has been so long since I have felt your warmth and seen your light.<BR>Darkness begins to envelope me as I begin to grow cold and alone with each passing day.<BR>The days begin to blur together and I begin to forget who and where I am.<BR>All around are only shadows of the past.<BR>My strength begins to fade as my source of warmth, that nurturing light are hidden by the ever increasing cloud cover.<BR>I try to break through the darkness but it eludes my reach.<BR>The sadness cuts deep to my soul as I don't know how to restore the light.<BR>I can only wait and pray that you come out from behind the clouds and once again restore my strength.<P>Orlando Sanchez

Orlando,<P>Moving man, moving.. I felt myself in your poem.<P>I didn't know how imporant my wife was to me till she had flown. If only I wasn't too stupid and caught up in my work..
