Book Description
This collection of heartfelt works began quietly as the title of a love note that my beloved left for me one day. The title of the note was Flowers Bloom in the Moonlight. The note was one of his most endearing expressions of love. He described me as his flower that bloomed in the moonlight. We met and fell in love during a very dark time in his life. Our friendship and love bloomed, in spite of every obstacle in our way, into a beautiful work of art; like a flower. Naturally, I was very happy and overwhelmed the loving sentiment. As the years passed on, the message of Flowers Bloom in the Moonlight stayed on my mind. What was so intriguing for me was wondering how many other dark life situations had bloomed into flowers too. The concept of Flowers Bloom in the Moonlight: The Anthology, was born when I asked that very question. I decided to collect and compile a collection of stories and poetry symbolizing life circumstances that appeared dark, full of gloom and even hopeless yet through perseverance and following the lighted path, were led to a brighter, more flourishing life.
