light from one candle lights another, how Love makes you happier, has you love more…~Jade
“Yes, I am a lady of incendiary destiny,” writes May Ziadeh in her own words in a letter of her lifetime.
One day I said quietly in reply in my living room, ”I like you fiery, May; I like you as you…Well, I would like to give you something sweet too, like a little bit of honey 🍯for your flame😊🕯💗.
A pause…and then a siren!…Fire alarm goes off inside and nowhere else, no reason I can see.❔Once, twice… “Fire,” woman recorded on alarm with clear voice says. ”Fire,” she says again, and then it’s right off again. 😊🤫♥️ I think maybe May was using Flame emoji🔥; maybe teasing my scientific knowledge. It warms my heart; may it warm yours…😊💕

…Love, do good, use your soul In the service of Beauty; Your life will be its holy and sweet flame Lighting up the tomb… . …An inner spoken plea slips over me; "A wing of youth and love lifts me up” And brings me to You! —May Ziadeh مي ذ —pub. by Isis Copia from a poem in Dream Flowers (1911) 💕🌷🌸
