The Breaker of the Storms

The Breaker of the Storms offers a progression of poetic episodes that speaks to the challenges and joys of each and every day lived in God's loving hands. Poet Burdella "Carmen" Turner has crafted this collection a firsthand reflection of her soul's search for meaning and purpose in a cruel and seemingly pitiless world. From the agony of losing a beloved son to suicide to the acknowledgment that if we are truly mindful of the difference that God makes in our lived, only then can we live a righteous life, she captures all that God means to us. Turner's powerful poetry is transcendent, expressing more than words alone can say evoking deep emotion and then reflection upon the path that God leads us on in life.
