# Wonder is a Choice

Poems about Life | 0 |

Going about your business
The same from day to day
Just dealing with challenges
That might get in the way

Rinse, repeat, recycle
Another week of the same
Questioning the pattern
We only have ourselves to blame

We give our will to others
Not defining our own path
Giving into fear
Of other people’s wrath

It’s important to remember
You always have a voice
Use it to create your world
Because wonder is a choice

## About the Poem Wonder is a Choice

The poem Wonder is a Choice is about how we interact with the world. Our experiences aren’t predetermined and two people can have the very different experiences with the same set of events. Christmas is often a classic example. As we get older, Christmas morning will often be a frenzy of how quickly we can rip off the paper to see what’s inside. Little kids, on the other hand, may just hug their wrapped boxes enjoying the colorful wrapping. They don’t care what is inside, they are good with the fun object in front of them. This is a moment of wonder. We tend to breeze past these as we get older. Maybe it’s time to slow down and look for the wonder that might be right in front of us.

## 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.
