Some are those we tell ourselves
While some are left for others
They might be told by children
Or sisters or our brothers
Some are things of legend
Others lost to time
Tales that end in sorrow
Or days that are sublime
It’s how we are remembered
The feeling we create
Of days of love or triumph
Or how we met our fate
In the end we are the stories
That other people tell
The important thing to remember
We should try to live them well
About the Poem We are the Stories
The poem We are the Stories is about how at the end of the day, we are the stories we tell ourselves, and the stories that others tell about us. Since we are the main character in our stories, we need to be conscious of the stories we are creating. We may not be able to change the direction of the story, but we should do our best to live the story well.
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.
