This is a beautiful book of poetry unlike any other. It left me breathless in how it touched upon so many important subjects of loving and accepting yourself. Whether it's suffering from a broken heart of a significant other, friendships, family, or even broken dreams, I really connected with these short pieces of art. Readings to savor.

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is a thoughtful collection of poems.

Some read almost like short stories. They're poems about finding yourself and accepting yourself and choosing to love yourself.

It's a thought provoking and heartfelt collection!

Have you ever read something and you're just like "yes, I needed that so much"? Flowers On The Moon was that for me. All of the poems were beautiful, encouraging, and so meaningful. I felt like Chapata was speaking to my soul.

These poems are about loving yourself in the present, letting go of the past and having the confidence to more forward in the future. Such a beautiful and well thought out read.

Excellent. It's been such a long time since I last read this kind of poem. Modern poems tends to be shorter, which makes me find it kinda lose the nuance.

This is good.

“never let them paint your pain as something ordinary, something common, something unimportant.” - quote from ‘wound palette.’

‘Flowers On The Moon’ is a collection of poems and prose by Billy Chapata. The poems and prose are simple yet capture so much emotion and make you feel inspired. There’s a theme of self-love, self-discovery, as well as heartbreak and healing. I find the poems really empowering for women and I’m glad to see this from a male poet. I marked quite a lot of poems that resonated with me and I think I’ll purchase a physical copy of the book as it would be nice just to pick up and open up to any page when you need a little empowerment.

Thank you to #netgalleyuk for a free ebook of Flowers On The Moon!

Thanks to #Netgalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for making this collection available to me.

Chapata does a great job likening flowers regeneration and growth to the undeniable strength of humanity, It in some ways reminds me of a quote I heard a while back ' A flower that buds in the storm is a strong and everlasting flower'. The storm can be likened to the trials and tribulations humanity face. Having the ability to work and live through them, is what makes humanity a rainbow to the grey moon.

I really loved reading this collection, I hope you check it out.
