New collection of poetry, just dropped

One With The Minnesota Pines.

This collection is very personal and important to me. Rooted in the forests and lakes of Minnesota and carried across its small towns and open fields.

One With The Minnesota Pines is a love letter from me to the place that shaped my beginnings and the wild heart of my family. Our stories are layered into these free verse poems about youth, family, happiness, and loss.

One With The Minnesota Pines gives a soft nod to my grandparents, my mother and brother who let me carry all of our stories in my bones, in my heart and through life.

Connecting to a past that has built you and also hurt you is a great part of healing and letting go. I hope you connect to these poems and are inspired to write your memories down, before they fade. We are responsible for our own memories.

As always with love

Christina Gabsa

Teachings of The Olive Trees and Bumblebees. Debut Poetry Book Published On Amazon.

I am a free verse poet based in Frederick, Maryland, whose writing explores the quiet, powerful connection between humans and nature.

My work leans into the natural world—bunnies, fireflies, olive trees, and coyotes—not just as scenery but as secret carriers of emotional truth. I write in imagery and disguise, crafting poems that often seem like small fables or dreamlike snapshots, but underneath, they're intimate reckonings. A ride standing tall on a coyote’s back might really be my way of writing about facing anxiety. These poems never tell you everything directly—they hint, gesture, and leave space for the reader to feel their own reflection inside the lines.

Editorial Review

A whisper from the Wild: Christina Gabsa’s Green Little Sigh

Where It All Started…

Let the olive trees strengthen all the things that are broken in you, and the bumblebee heal your thoughts and ambitions. Poetry that transports you to the edges of your own life. Urging you to confront your doubts, fears, and desires. Poetry that reminds us that it is never too late to heal, to forgive, and to become whole.
