# Smoldering

Poems about Life | 0 |

Your eyes may just deceive you
There’s still heat within the coals
Potential still for fire
If that is still your goal

Has the fire run its course
Or suffered from neglect
Perhaps not enough attention
Or maybe no respect

While the heat is present
The choice you can decide
To ignore the smoldering embers
Or coax the fire that’s inside

As with so many decisions
It often comes down to choice
Will you unleash the fire
And show the world your voice

## About the Poem Smoldering

The inspirational poem Smoldering is about not recognizing your own potential, especially when you think an opportunity may have passed you by. Sometimes we may have made a decision that we feel may have closed a door. It maybe that it was just a matter of timing or you need to find another way. The vision you had may still be present, it just needs to be given the right encouragement to come to reality. It’s still there if you want it.

## 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.
