Words of Life poetry anthology is the first baby born out of Gumbo's literary womb. It is the first edition to a series of poetry collections filled with various themes connecting to form an inspiring read. It's title insists the contents are life changing.
One will get a glimpse of the heart as it spills out its deepest yearnings while yet denouncing acts of violence in emotional, physical abuse, xenophobic attacks. Self affirmation sprouts in to help one focus on their goal as Gumbo writes using parables in a bid to teach life lessons.
Inspired by her faith in God, she puts in words of courage to the faithful servant in trials. This book's core purpose is to entertain, advise and inform. "More editions shall follow very soon," says Gumbo.
