A mix of joy and sorrow
This is the price of knowing
Both that your days are numbered
And the promise of where you’re going
Remember lives aren’t richer
Just because they’re long
A sound is none the sweeter
When it’s in a longer song
You’ve known pain and heartache
But also love and joy
These are amongst the memories
That time can not destroy
It’s all about the memories
And letting shine your light
Guiding the way for others
Like a candle burning bright

About the Inspirational Poem Burning Bright
Burning Bright is an inspirational poem by Robert Longley about that point on many cancer journeys when you know that things are not going to be getting better. How are you going to live your life when you know it isn’t going to be as long as you had hoped? Wouldn’t it be nice if people could always live their lives knowing that time is important and memories are not to be squandered. Do the most you can with whatever you are given. Strive to burn bright!
Inspirational Poetry Books
Here are some of the books that are available from Robert Longley. I would recommend the Sacred Poem journals. Reading my earlier books (especially the ones for Military, Police and Firefighter’s families) cover to cover can be overwhelming. The poetry journals are designed to give you one poem per day while you journal about what might be going on in your life. There are specific journals for grief, success, and more.

Inspirational Poetry Products
While I do signed poetry prints that are 11×14, that isn’t the size or product that all people want. Some just want a sympathy card, others may want a large canvas print, or maybe a coffee cup. There are limits to what I can customize with the options available so some products just don’t work. Please just ignore them, I know that that format doesn’t work. If you are looking for something specific, or would like to make something specific just let me know. I’m open to just about anything.
