Strong and ever present
A symbol for us all
Steadfast in dedication
Always standing tall

There when they are most needed
To climb or just for shade
Always looking over
Watching proudly as you played

Never doing for you
But providing what you need
Standing as an example
So you too may succeed

The branches may be tired
The leaves begin to fade
But the stories are still living
In the memories we made

About the Poem A Tree Stands Tall

The poem A Tree Stands Tall is about that person in our families that is always there for us. And when they are gone we are reminded of the impact they had on us and those around us.

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.
