Everybody needs one
And not up in the sky
someone that provides direction
and helps to answer why
There are no easy answers
That’s why we need a guide
Even with a compass
It’s sometimes locked inside
Once we have a north star
The direction is now clear
Suddenly, there is confidence
Where once was only fear
That’s part of what you’re finding
The star that lives in you
That gives those around you confidence
To do what they must do
About the Poem Your North Star
The poem Your North Star is about finding direction in our lives. The North Star has been a real guide for many in past years, but now it is more of a metaphor. It’s something you can always count on when you need it. And it’s usually there when it’s darkest. We tend to think of our North Star as something external, usually a person. But our real North Star is within us. We need to learn to find it and trust in what it tells us.
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.
