Zelda is a rarity in having a deep and traditional faith, without the doubts and irony about Religion that are so common among Hebrew poets of the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries. She came from a family of pious Hassidim and married within the faith. Her Poem reflect her abiding faith - for example in ''Kaasher berakhti 'al hanerot'' - "When I said the blessing over the Shabat candles". Zelda worked as a Teacher in Jerusalem. The most famous of her students is a young boy named Amos Klausner, who had a strong schoolboy crush on his teacher, and who grew up to be the famous novelist Amos Oz . Years after his education he paid her a visit. She was still living at the same address. He was deeply touched that, in spite of all the time that had passed, she still remembered exactly how he liked his lemonade, and politely asked him if he still liked it that way.
