Book Overview
From award-winning poet Derek R. King comes I Blew a Kiss to the Moon, a luminous collection of love poems inspired by distance, devotion, and the mystical beauty of the moon. As the fifth volume in the beloved Red Roses Series, this book continues a poetic love story that defies time and distance, exploring the celestial bond between two soulmates.
Each poem is a moonlit meditation on longing, connection, and reunion. Whether it's a whispered wish under a cold December moon, or a kiss sent skyward in the early morning hours, King's words reflect a love that lives not only in memory but in every shared moment beneath the stars.
The moon becomes a companion, a guide, and a sacred meeting place where lovers, separated by oceans or circumstance, find each other through light and spirit. With powerful yet tender imagery, these poems invite readers to look up and feel the pull of a shared heart, even in solitude.
Perfect for fans of romantic poetry, lunar symbolism, and spiritual connection, I Blew a Kiss to the Moon is a heartfelt gift for anniversaries, long-distance lovers, and anyone who has ever waited for love to return. King's lyrical style evokes both the grounded beauty of earthly affection and the boundless possibility of love that transcends time.
If you've ever gazed at the moon and thought of someone you love, this collection is for you.
