Life Stanzas - A Soulful Collection

Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2025

Carly’s book of poems is a beautiful journey through the depths of the human experience, her experience. With thoughtful insights, Carly captures the complexities of life, loss, hope, and resilience, all whilst relating these experiences to the God she clearly honors.

Over two decades her poems reflect the faithfulness of God and her faithfulness to Him, whilst responding to the challenges life brings. Life Stanzas invite readers to reflect on their own experiences and emotions, and to look for God’s hand in them.

This collection is a testament to the power of poetry to touch our hearts and minds. Carly writes as a disciple of Christ. It is refreshing to see her faith in Christ as reflected in her poems.

Personally, I will use Carly's poems as a reference, and I will return to them often.
