Such a tender and peaceful poem. The imagery of “pregnant moonlight” and “a lap of silence” feels so soft and comforting. It really captures the mystery and quiet beauty of the night. Lovely writing Meena ji.

P.S.: I don’t know if you remember me, but I used to post here back in 2014–15. Your comments on my poems always meant a lot to me, and I loved reading them.

Beautiful and cathartic imagery throughout this delicate little piece. I hope you have been keeping well, Meena.
