Moon-Bow 1 January 2026

A L O H A  From

While scientific explanations describe a moonbow as a rare atmospheric phenomenon caused by moonlight refracting through water droplets, spiritual and symbolic interpretations focus on its ethereal beauty
and rarity:

Some people look on a moonbow 
as a spiritual sign,
A Great Invocation and Blessing 
laid like light across the dark.

A moonbow is a rainbow that 
has learned to sing.
Where the rain meets moonlight, 
the sky remembers beautiful things.

Hope does not always blaze; 
sometimes it bends softly 
across the night like a moonbow.
The moonbow is a reminder 

that even in the night, 
the covenant of light remains.
What better sign can 
there be of hope 

than a rainbow breaking 
through the darkness, 
a moonbow arching over 
every earnest prayer,
a moonbow only 
the patient will see?
   Cloudia Charters




Between the palms 
and the moon, 
the night remembers 
how to breathe.​






A smile happens in a flash, 
but its memory 
can last a lifetime.​

A single idea, a 
sudden flash of thought, 
can be worth more 
than a lifetime of routine.

​In a flash the mind 
understands 
what the heart has 
known for years.

Half of our mistakes in life arises from feeling where we ought to think, and thinking where we
ought to feel.

  1. Moonbow II

    Grief is a road that never straightens,
    yet still the light keeps bending toward us,
    soft as a hand that will not let go.

    Some promises do not blaze at noon;
    they arrive in silence,
    drawn in pale, patient arcs across our darkness,
    teaching the heart to breathe again.

    The soul has its own hidden moonbow,
    appearing only when sorrow and love
    fall together like rain—
    a quiet sign that nothing given in love
    is ever truly lost.
