It’s not the space between us
Defining who we are
It’s how we can make an impact
No matter near or far
To say that I can touch you
Means more when out of reach
These moments when there’s distance
Reveal more that we can teach
To know this separation
Will change your view of things
The value of what’s important
And what makes your heart sing
Through all this separation
Relearn how to connect
You’ll gain a sense of oneness
And perhaps new found respect
About the Inspirational Poem Distance
The poem Distance is about our shared experience as a planet during the Covid 19 epidemic. We have a long tradition of hugging, kissing and shaking hands that has now been completely interrupted for the first time in recent history. This isolation is something we aren’t used to and we are needing to relearn what the process of being connected really means.
So what will our world look like when this is all over? Will we have discovered new ways to connect? Will we have a new found respect for each other and the fact that we are all connected. Just some questions you might want to think about while stay at home and still try to stay connected with those we love.
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.
