Rona and Marama

Rona was being bossy to her husband because she told him to do everything she wanted. One day Rona told her husband to get a fish. Rona fell asleep in the morning and she woke up at night time. Rona was very thirsty. She didn’t see her husband so she went by herself to the river. A cloud came over Marama and Rona tripped over a tree. When she woke up from tripping over she called Marama an old cooked head but…. Marama was angry and he went down from the sky to the ground and took Rona away. Rona held on to the tree but Marama was too strong. Marama went back to the sky and the tree broke. Rona told Marama “Put me down,” but Marama said “No.” Then her husband arrived. He didn’t see his wife. He looked for her everywhere and when he looked in the sky he saw her and that’s why in a full moon you can see Rona. When people are angry they remember Rona’s mistake.
