What is it you dream of
What is it you lack
What are you saying goodbye to
That you wish you could have back

You cannot hold the future
And past in the same hand
There is always separation
In time or space or land

You never will be anchored
In ways you cannot leave
You need only sense the purpose
And know you must believe

Relax into the moment
And trust that all is what it seems
The key to moving forwards
Is sometimes trading dreams

About The Poem Trading Dreams

Trading Dreams is an inspirational poem about trading what you already have for something completely different. Often times we think we have everything we want but are drawn to something else. Moving in that direction means letting go of what you already have.

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.
