Captured in the moment
And stopped dead in your tracks
Knowing in an instant
There is no going back
Fear is clearly present
But just to be embraced
It is worth the challenge
Lest the moment is erased
Many plans were present
Until this moment came
Now they are rewritten
As nothing is the same
You never see it coming
That time love catches you
Be sure to make it welcome
You should know what to do
About the Poem Love Catches You
The poem Love Catches You is a response to an Instagram post by Ewa Kasp. I get ideas in different places and found her by accident. She is probably not a household name, but she is very talented and she does interesting videos in multiple languages. The poem itself is about how love surprises you when you least expect it. You were probably headed in a specific direction, and now it doesn’t make sense to go that way anymore. Love will do that to you. Decisions about what you were going to do when can suddenly be upended in a very short period of time. Don’t be afraid of love when it shows up. Welcome it and show it some care.
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.
