A View of the World Through the Eyes of a Poet

BookSurge proudly announces the publication of Whatever Happened to Onetime? by Barbara C. Agarwal.

Largo, Florida (PRWEB) March 26, 2006 -- BookSurge proudly announces the release of Whatever Happened to Onetime? by Barbara C. Agarwal.

How can aficionados of poetry and all things poetic resist a talent that has been described as “hovering…somewhere between the wisdom of Whittier…and the humor of …Seuss”? In truth, those who love poetry in all its forms must rush to order this book.

With more than fifty poems, written in both rhyme and free verse, Whatever Happened to Onetime? reflects the widely traveled and very astute Barbara Agarwal, a poet who views the world with a discerning (and sometimes wonderfully amused) eye. As a result of her extensive travels through Denmark, the Czech Republic, India, the U.K., Netherlands, as well as across and around the United States, the author has picked a myriad of flavors—color, words, essences—that, when woven into her poetic text, reveals again and again a sensitivity to human emotion: joy, gratitude, sadness, love.

There is also a moving and pensive thread that runs through this volume, its offerings singling out Barbara Agarwal as a creative voice that must be heard. Such moving and entertaining work makes the reader want more.

About the Author:
Agarwal, a lifelong native Bostonian (who grew up in Georgetown, MA), changing careers after teaching many years and co-authoring articles on Alzheimer’s disease in Massachusetts, now writes full time prose and poetry. She resides summers in Ogdensburg, NY, also a Rotarian in attendance at her home on the St. Lawrence River, and in winter can be found living near the Gulf of Mexico in Largo, FL, not far from her inspirational Indian Rocks Beach. This first volume is the perfect gift for all ages of poet-loving adults!
