Sounds so full of memories
Of whispers long ago
A time once filled with promise
Of a future yet to show

Echoes are always softer
Than the memories themselves
Much like faded pictures
We keep upon our shelves

They serve as a reminder
Connecting to the past
Fragments of another time
That wasn’t meant to last

It brings forth old emotions
To filter and replay
These echoes of serenity
Can brighten up our day

About the Poem Echoes of Serenity

The poem Echoes of Serenity is about those sounds, smells and images that bring back memories. It could be a crackling fire, the smell of fresh baked cookies or maybe a sunset. You probably have a few pictures laying around that capture some of these memories. By their nature, memories are fleeting, but we can store them in such a way that we can still capture their echoes. As we take time to enjoy them, the memories can come back and hopefully make our day a little brighter.

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.
