Hello Annanisa by Karen

I found you one summer
in a genealogy book
pressed
between two siblings
like a forget-me-not

The beauty of your name
caused me to linger
on the
page

Sparrow
on a hidden limb
I heard your quiet song

When you shook your hair
a ribbon rolled
over my
arm
and tied us together

BIO: Native Californian (US), Karen Kelsay has had poems appear in
the Christian Science Monitor, The Avocet, The Shepherd, Ken Again, The
Storyteller, Munyori Poetry Journals, Oasis Magazine, and The
Pregnant Moon. Growing up along the Pacific Ocean, Karen developed a keen
love for poetry and the sea. Describing her own poetry work she says, "I would
be hard-pressed to single out my favorite poets, and by no means has my poetry
been influenced by anyone in particular, but I lean toward the traditional
forms." Her recent anthology, "Collected Poems," is now available through
BarnesandNoble.com and Amazon.com.
