A Song for You—Parables and Pearls is an inspiring book of poetry written by author Karen O Bannon. She says the collection of poems, according to O Bannon, were inspired by her young daughter. “As I watch my daughter grow up I am gaining a better understanding of how the relationship between mothers and daughters can have a lasting effect.†My book is a reminder to women that the character attributes learned as children carry equal significance in adulthood and attempts to create reflective dialogue that inspires growth and change.â€
In addition to the poems, A Song for You—Parables and Pearls also includes scriptures and life applications about ordinary women in ordinary circumstances. The book is highly recommended by Midwest Book Review:
A Song for You: Parables and Pearls is a collection of poetry by African-American author Karen O’Bannon, now revised with extensive biblical and life commentary. A theme of transferring wisdom and the bond between mothers and daughters circulates amid these simple yet heart-touching free-verse poems.
