A seed that’s caught from falling
Will never reach the ground
And as such its true potential
Never can be found
Watching is the hardest part
The tree lets go its seed
Knowing it must fall away
If its power should be freed
There is no way of knowing
Which seeds will find their way
We hope that they will safely land
And learn to grow some day
There is comfort in the knowing
That somewhere in each seed
Is all of life’s instructions
And all the love they need
About the Poem – What is Inside
What is Inside is an inspirational poem by Robert Longley. It is a somewhat unusual fathers day poem in that it is about some of the hardest parts of being a father. You try to prepare your children for things, but often they face challenges that you can’t help them with. Sometimes all you can do is watch and know that you gave them everything they need to be the person that they are supposed to be.
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.
