The words they spread like wild fire
Bringing tears and pain and ire
The slaughter now is near complete
Except for those now starved for food to eat
A strange tradition in this land
Where groups of people are now banned
Neighborhoods are pocked with scars
Of missing homes and burned out cars
Times not soon to heal these people
Who label each other by their steeple
They forget we are all the same
And labeled not by single names
It is their way some people say
Like some elaborate Passion play
We watch and still don’t understand
The pain that breeds within this land
About the Poem Tell
Tell is an inspirational poem about religious perspectives and the wars in the middle east.
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.
