A place of mystery and wonder
Or perhaps more of the same
It could be our destiny
Or that from which we came

So many possibilities
Just beyond our view
Dreams and aspirations
And things we hoped we knew

Will it bring us closer
To the future that we seek
Give us strength and power
Or maybe make us weak

Until we finally go there
The secrets remain sealed
And we get our questions answered
By the mysteries revealed

About the Poem Over the Horizon

The poem Over the Horizon is about the sense we often have of something just out of our grasp. We have a sense of what it might be, but we don’t really know what it is. I’ve always been a fan of Meno’s Paradox. If you are looking for something, but don’t know what it is, how then once you have found it, will you know that was what you were looking for?

We may feel drawn to an idea or a direction but all too often we don’t take that step away from safety to see what might be over the horizon. Rarely does the oracle show up and your door and invite you to ask your deepest questions. You have to go in search of the answers. They are out there. They are most likely just over the horizon.

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.
