She states that in her early years her father told her that she would become the pen of a ready writer and indeed she has. Christine poems are very uplifting and she says that her aim through poetry is to glorify, honor, praise, thank and exalt God and to encourage, motivate, bless, inspire others. God has blessed her with this special talent and she is obliged to give back to God for his goodness, mercy and grace through her poetry. Christine's gift for poetry became public when she assisted her daughter, Andrea with a school assignment, the teacher advised Christine to pursue her writing. Through the Ministry of Culture her work was introduced to a Radio program called Piece a Me Mind on the local Radio station ZIZ. Christine read poems daily on this program. In 2005, The International Society of Poets' awarded Christine with a silver bowl trophy and medallion to honor her poetic dedication and achievements for the poem Be Confident. Christine joined 1,800 hundred poets and guests from 50 countries around the world at The 2005 Symposium and Convention in Washington, D.C. She was also inducted as an honorary International poet of Merit for 2005-2006. For Christine; writing is therapeutic and refreshing, it expresses the inner being. She encourages fellow poets to utilize their talents and honor God with their poetry. Have confidence; take a step of faith, continue to try, no matter how hard it seems. With God all things are possible, be assured the best is yet to come. Words are powerful; let us use them to honor and glorify God and to build up others. Christine was the featured poet for World Poetry Day at the Charlestown Public Library in March 2009.view less
