Her idea of happiness was much different from her mothers But, there is a secret at the Plantation. A deep, dark secret being kept from Rose.

What will happen when the secret is revealed and what will be found Where the Rose Petals Fall...?

"The Petals Fall One by One" chronicles the rollercoaster of love, life, heartbreak, and new beginnings. It is based on the author, Armond Gray Jr's, authentic experiences and his loved ones' experiences. The poems take the reader through the hills and valleys of life, but in the end, the poems remind us all that we're human and to take it one day at a time. Additionally, the author's motivation stemmed from quarantine and the Covid-19 pandemic. His goal was to find a way to connect with others on a mental and emotional level without being physically together. More importantly, his motivation stems from his grandparents, great-grandparents, and uncles, who have transitioned onto the next realm. Each chapter in the book has a flower's name, and each flower has a different representation. The poems within each chapter relate to the literary understanding of that specific flower. The chapter "ROSES" represents romance and passionate love. The chapter "PROTEAS" represents change and transformation. The chapter "DAFFODILS" symbolizes rebirth and new beginnings. The chapter "ORCHIDS" exemplifies themes of refinement and maturity, and lastly, the chapter "SWEET PEAS" represents appreciation and departure. The intentionality of Armond's creativity as he penned the expressive art of his poetry is meant to engulf you in the emotions that each poem evokes. An ageless and timeless masterpiece, "The Petals Fall One by One" is a special treat.
