What defines a mother
It’s more than DNA
In fact it seems biology
Will just get in the way

It’s not from whom we came from
It’s who made us who we are
It’s who gave us strength and courage
And the drive to travel far

Some mothers are there from the beginning
Some join us along the way
But always they’re supporting us
Each and every day

Thanks often is unspoken
In truth there is no need
Our deeper soul connection
Helps set our spirits free

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.
