New Poetry Book Makes Highly Recommended List

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.”

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.
