• Classics Cat, Painted Jane Eyre, with Music by Justin Bieber

  

  …this literary scholar and fine art collector cat smiles at the Readers… —😽😎🐱Peeko 🎶🎶… and becomes a very plush, emotional cat as he loves when I am reading a many-paged classic novel, and he may like it himself for me to be reading, if he would pick, he loves relaxation, and when I am relaxing…

• ‘Please Forgive Me’—Rumi

  

  I found the book I must’ve opened some months ago that wasn’t at the store last week; it wasn’t there but I see it in my above photo, so I know what to look for…I think it was Rumi: The Book of Love. 🙏💕📖 —Jade …from another book, a poem by Rumi …The miracle-signs: you…

• Pure Fun, New Moon, Writing Notebook

  

  Last night Monday…Peeko sitting in my chair with such pride. And he might show up at your job as your new Project Manager, you never know. Last week I could sum up with the line, Reason for Exhaustion: Writing sonnets all day. One Shakespearean. One Petrarchan: complex rhyme scheme sent me crashing by 4 pm.…

• Lost and Found: Give You Riddles That Are More Fun Than I Thought

  

  True Life: Light flicked off some moments after while I was inside, no one around, flicks on again bright as usual with my step forward…Now, does that make me invisible or not, or might I be shifting? No wrong answer; it’s not that exciting.😊😉🧚‍♀️🌑But my own photo! In an audio post on May 7, ‘21,…

• September Eighth, Safekeepings

  

  Tues., Sept. 7 ‘21 My calendar showed me it was time to open the book with the snow-flowers and the rose, as I’d learned that flowers preserve more easily if the book that holds them is kept closed ‘til it’s time. The snow-flowers were like a mysterious gift taken off the stems at their fullness…

• The Little Pieces of Wisdom I Treasure Which May Be Made of Tissue Paper

  

  Why would I need great wealth when the library is so much fun?  Let me have a few clothes hangers to detangle after a just neatened closet wardrobe. Let me find the empty clothes hangers taking up extra room one by one, and then set them apart one by one, and close the door…go out…

• A Short Story by May Ziadeh, Beloved: Memories of Lebanon

  

  Somehow I’d been looking at old posts and happened to come across a post in which I’d shared an article in a periodical I’d found written by May Ziadeh as I was moving through translating her first book of poems, Flowers of a Dream. I hadn’t read it then, had saved it for much later,…

• My Lips Are A Little More Sealed

  

  Am I speaking things that together with the listener brings me down in their reply? I don’t continue to share, I treasure them myself, or when someone else wants to know more, and the frustration dissipates in time; ties to the world and spiritual world and my own self soothe me. There are other things…
