My New Poetry Book is Out Now!
Hello everyone! I just wanted to let you know that I just published a book of poetry. A lot of it contains Christian poems. I have written poetry since I was 8 years old, and now I am in my 30’s. This book was long-awaited and a labor of love. I hope you check it out. It’s on Kindle Unlimited too.

Life Stanzas: Selected Poems
One of my poems in the book:
Here’s a link:
True Wisdom of the Ages
Come on love, don’t grow weary on me
I need you to teach me
Not just preach to me
I have this insatiable longing
Nothing fills this void
No wisdom from books
Or quote from Sigmund Freud
This is my stream of consciousness
He did have wisdom in that
I know I gold in my pocket
But in reality, I am depressed too
So many erased dates I am stressed and blue
I have no dry eye socket
But wisdom changes with the ages
But one thing is for certain
I will keep my praises
Each day has enough trouble of its own
Jesus was the wisest of them all

Crushed Leaves
The heights of existence
Leave no room for resistance
I hear you say
But I don’t agree
Personal hearts wrapped in love
Are packages without delay
But packages in the mailroom of my heart
I lost the key and it’s my fault
I thought I desired approval
With your stamp of love
And signature
But I see the removal
Is it my fault or the fault of you?
I cannot choose
Please come over
Or have dinner with me
I miss your affirming eyes
But your yes changes like a October
I just want love
Is that enough?
I guess it starts with me
I see falling leaves in your eyes
Not with a celebratory feel
But crushed leaves in the mire of a past story
I guess it starts with me
I must move on fully
Like a full fleshed out moon
When I find my key
I won’t give up
I’ll make room

Winter Chill
The winter chill
Can this be for real?
A dense bone
Isn’t alone
Covered in the warmth of skin
Why don’t you let the winter in?
Every forgotten snowman
Melted by the ray’s end
Can this be true?
This cold makes me brand new
Seasons makes me equppied
For the seasons have me by the hip
People Highly Esteemed
When your dreams turn to rust
And there’s no one to trust
You feel like you put in the corner
On an alien planet as a foreigner
It’s so vital to love and forgive
Yes, we come from Adam’s sinful ribs
But we should live as the redeemed
People highly esteemed

Christmas is Only Once a Year
Don’t you know that Christmas
Is filled with peaceful bliss?
White like a bunny’s fur
Christmas cookies
Making you want more
Christmas is filled with caroling
Never tiring perky singing
I know you heard that song
But I see you smiling
Why don’t you nod along?
May the children in orphanage be safe
But they no long have to wait
May the elderly in nursing homes
Not feel alone
When you decorate that Christmas tree
May every ornament be a blessing to see
Every fragile dream realized
It is snowing outside
Enjoy the snowflakes on your eyes
It is Christmas only once a year
So drink a cup of cheer
And give to the homeless
And give Santa your Christmas list

Final Bow
Dry seasoning
No hidden meaning
What started as love
Ends with screaming
Dry rub
It’s never enough
I want reassurance
But that takes insurance
Time and money
Can’t see the trees through the forest
The bee ate all the honey
It’s no longer funny
But you say there’s hope in the sky
Will it shine like a pretty sunrise up high?
I forget every worry
It erases every why
The review mirror is no longer blurry
And the traffic isn’t in a hurry
You need the fruits of the Spirit now
Where joy, peace and patience you allow
You shine like stars in the night
Memories that make you go wow
Stubbornness and pride will take a final bow
(C) Carly Wiggins May 2022
Love is Stronger
Love is stronger than prophecy
Or supernatural tongues you speak
God is in the midst of you
But give Him your love first
You wonder where He is
You strive with such force
Things go from better to worse
Do you realize freedom can come
As soon as you rest some
Let go of your need for understanding
Trust the One who we can’t comprehend
His love is real compared to the world’s pretend
All He wants is your love and a “Amen”
(C) Carly Wiggins January 2024
Happy 2024!
Happy New Year’s Eve everyone! I hope 2024 is a bright and prosperous year for you! God is with you, despite whatever happens in the world!
“Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.” Colossians 3:1-4 NIV
Solace and Forestry
Anyone else afraid?
Am I just going out a limb?
Is that why animals hide in trees?
To make the night end faster?
When the sun goes dim
The gloomy meets with the distraught
Because misery loves company
If there is some intruding danger
I want the twigs and leaves to enclose me
Solace is found in forestry
