Pregnant with Words Denise Moyo

What can rise out of ashes, but ashes themselves?

In her third poetry collection, Denise Moyo speaks of fear, pain, and brokenness as universal inevitabilities of being human.

Moyo examines the voice of God. In Pregnant with Words, God has already spoken, yet we wait as though he has remained silent. Pain can often fool us into thinking God is not present.

In Moyo's writings, God is always inviting us to birth our gifts into the world, an act that bring us closer to God and improve our lives as well as the lives of those in similar circumstances.
