One More Rhyme, Before the Last Petal Falls is a lyrical reimagining of childhood through a darker, more introspective lens.

Blending emotional honesty with poetic elegance, Dylan Wu Rong rewrites familiar nursery rhymes into haunting verses that speak of innocence lost, silent wounds, growing pains, and the quiet search for meaning. Each poem draws readers into a world where lullabies echo with sorrow, daisies wilt beneath heavy skies, and memory becomes both a comfort and a curse.

This is not a collection for those seeking fairy tales. It is for those who have loved deeply, grieved quietly, and wandered long through the space between childhood and becoming. With 50 poems that breathe new life—and darkness—into old rhymes, Dylan invites readers to feel, reflect, and perhaps, reclaim the forgotten child within.
