Jewels and gold surround you
But nothing can compare
To a moment that is precious
When there’s magic in the air

It’s all about perception
A Response to an event
A little something special
In how our time is spent

You may not see them coming
And they could disappear as fast
Our lives are full of moments
That just aren’t meant to last

Take time for observing
The world is quite the stage
A new adventure is waiting
With the turning of each page

About the poem Something Precious

The poem Something Precious is about what is really important in life. There’s a saying that he who dies with the most toys wins, but that is the opposite of the truth. We live in a world that rewards this behavior, and we often forget about what is really important. Sometimes we are lucky enough to create perfect moments. Most of the time we just need to be observant. Special moments can be happening all around us. We just need to remember to look for them.

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.
