Melding moonbeams weave a warm quilt
For chill under unsteady boat's tilt
Moonlit clouds melt into settling silt
Moon-washed leaves on banks slow wilt
Dark glimmers for shimmering Luna
Eerily soothing scary sacred Laguna
Swept off in love like gigantic Kahuna
The two lay in boat await dawn of Huna
Souls re-merge in life force energy Mana
Bio
Rupa Rao owes her love for poetry to being a captive listener to her father’s reciting of poetry through her childhood in his sonorous tinkling tone which still resonates deep though he is long gone. She loves her daily long nature walks, gardening, meaningful exchanges, spiritual experiences with scenic beauty, changing seasons, traveling, new countries, cultures, traditions that teach her the meaning of life. Her cheerleader mother is her inspiration and she is supported unconditionally by her sister, twins and husband in her quest to be a better version of herself.
