No one knows the number
Or what it means in days
We can only know the value
We create in many ways
For some it may be hours
For others countless years
But in the end there’s memories
Some laughter and some tears
How will you make a difference
What lives will you truly touch
Leaving an impression
That is bound to mean so much
We need to have intention
For all the days we live
Creating special memories
In all that we do give
About The Poem The Time That Is Given Us
The Time That Is Given Us is an inspirational poem about the fact that we never really know how much time we have in this world. I said goodbye to an old friend this week. Old friend is probably the wrong term, because I don’t think of myself as old and we were the same age. I know I have lots more to do with my life and she probably did as well. We don’t think a trip to the doctor will mean only weeks to live. But sometimes that’s what happens.
No one wants to get that news for themselves or for someone they love. It does serve as a reminder that we don’t know how much time we have and that we should do whatever we can with the time we have. Don’t wait until you are out of time to do the things you want to do. If you have a dream, now is the time to make it a reality. We don’t know the time that is given us so we we have to make our mark while we are here.
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.
