Sand is best remembered
With water at it’s side
Shells beside the water
Waves for kids to ride
A drink, a girl, a blanket
Can make the day complete
And rushing to the parking lot
Trying not to burn our feet
Take away the water
Add guns and men and war
And you find yourself wishing
For the other things sand is for
I think I’ll keep the memories
With waves and girls and fun
As I sit amidst the sand dunes
And watch the setting sun
About the poem – A Day at the Beach
The poem A Day at the Beach is about a soldier in Iraq’s memories about the beach when he is surrounded by sand for miles
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.
