Just because you ignore it
Doesn’t mean that it’s not there
Wisdom and direction
Is what it has to share

It doesn’t need to make sense
You don’t need to be strong
You just need to trust the universe
And try to play along

It won’t always be easy
To step into the flow
But things will get much clearer
With what the path does show

You don’t need all the answers
Before you even start
Just trust in the direction
And what is in your heart

About the Poem The Path is Calling

The poem The Path is Calling is about how we don’t really run towards the future, we are pulled to it. Many times, we ignore this pull and go about our lives doing things we are comfortable with, or that are easier than the direction we are being pulled. Just because we ignore it doesn’t mean it goes away. The fact that it might not make sense can make it easier to ignore. We try to pay attention to things that make sense and dismiss ideas that seem unrealistic or fanciful.

In almost all cases, following the path is about trust. There generally isn’t a logical reason that the direction should be possible, or even make sense, but it tends to persist until you do something about it. Maybe your life has taken a large detour, and you think you can never go back. It’s important to realize that anything that has happened was supposed to happen, but that doesn’t mean you can’t rejoin the path at some later date. The path is always there. It’s just up to you to find your way back to it.

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.
