Perhaps you didn’t hear me
I’m here to join the fight
I will not just be silent
I’m here to do what’s right
You may think you can discount me
I will not go away
I’m here for the duration
And I’ve got some things to say
I don’t expect to win each fight
Just coming out of the gate
But time is now for things to change
And history can’t wait
Your challenge is accepted
It’s time for things to rearrange
The direction that were heading
Is soon about to change
About the Poem Challenge Accepted
Challenge Accepted is an inspirational poem about equality for women. Being the father of two daughters I want to seem them having equality in the opportunities they have. Over the course of my career, I can honestly say that the women I have worked for have impressed me more than the men. As with many of the things I write, I will latch onto an idea and know I need to run with it. In the case of Challenge Accepted, I had seen the phrase but really didn’t know much about until after I created the print that went with it. (I don’t watch news or follow social media as much as you might think.) It’s rather validating to me that most of the other memes and social media postings are in blank and white and I didn’t realize this until after the fact. Accept the challenges that are presented to you and make the world a better place.
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.
