I did my job
And you’d be proud
I kept my head
Within the crowd
When others ran
I moved ahead
To help the injured
And to find the dead
Through smoke and fire
We climbed some more
Unaware
Of what’s in store
We saved so many
So I guess that’s why
When you give your life for others
It’s OK to die
About the Poem Just So You Know

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.
