You go in search of answers
But questions do you find
Pieces come together
To be sorted in your mind

Not what you’ve been seeking
More questions for the ask
Just glimpses of a future
Or some upcoming task

Wrapped up in frustration
The search does seem for not
So many contradictions
Of things that we are taught

Therein lies the secret
To see in other ways
What may be only possible
In coming future days

About the Poem Searching

The poem Searching is about how we think we are pushing towards our future when we are actually being pulled toward it. This is why things often don’t make sense looking forward, but they do looking backwards.

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.
