So much has been filled in
Always much to do
Brings back distant memories
Of a different time we knew

Endless possibilities
To run or simply play
Reminder of a simpler time
And how we spent our day

How do we get back there
Can we roll back the clock
Rethinking our priorities
And then just taking stock

Until we see it clearly
There’s no way to be free
But first we must be clearing
And create the space to be

About the Poem The Space to Be

The poem The Space to Be is about creating space in your life. The space was there when you started your life, but somehow it got filled in. A combinations of stuff, your expectations, responsibilities, etc. Pretty soon that space seemed to disappear. We can’t necessarily go back to that time, but we can create some of the space that we found there. It’s time to throw away the To-Do list and come up with a Not-To-Do list. And what about all our stuff. Chances are we don’t need most of it. Clearing space makes room for new things, and new experiences. But mostly it creates space for you to be who you are supposed to be.

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.
