WEST CREEK, N.J., March 13, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- "I shot an arrow into the star, It zoomed in space and soared to heights, That only dreams have visited before..." so goes the titular piece of Eva Kohr's anthology of poetry I Shot an Arrow into the Star. Full of melodious verses, clever turns of phrases, and meaningful as well as everyday topics, Kohr's brand of poetry is certainly a delight for the connoisseur of this art form.
Supplemented by engaging illustrations also drawn by the author, I Shot an Arrow into the Star is conveniently divided into sections on poems of Observation, Experience, Growth, Narration, Musings, and the whimsical Children's Hour for young (and young-at-heart) readers. It includes the award-winning poem (2nd prize in the 2007 International Open Poetry Competition), "New Orleans Was A Wet Canvas". This poem also garnered the Editor's Choice Award. As one admirer said about her work,
"...It is truly amazing the way she is able to breathe life into her imagery." - Marion Dewey, Elem. School Teacher, Little Egg Harbor Twp., NJ
