Deep, intuitive, philosophic and thought- provoking have been used to describe Karen Kirby's poetry. She considers herself a vessel, through which God speaks, and her writings have touched many lives, providing strength, hope and at times resolution to those who may least expect it. "Although new on the scene, Karen Kirby is a writer with deep convictions and she has a keen ability to focus on existential matters. She tells, in convincing terms, about her long journey into the spiritual realm, revealing the struggles she has faced along the road less travelled. Her imagery sweeps the readers along her journey and her poetic flair provides incentive for her readers to improve their lives. Many will benefit from her insight as I have." Don Raper
