Fear must not define us
Though we dance with it each day
Carefully moving around it
So not to get in the way
Fear may keep us humble
We are human after all
And even with the best intentions
Sometimes we will fall
Some may hear the story
And pause when they should act
But this is not our way
To keep our oath intact
There can be no hesitation
When we feel a life is at stake
Regardless of the outcome
This is the oath we take

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.
