And so, the Poetria in me replied...

   If Paul Newmann's wife  can buy him a ROLEX watch  worth $17,600,000 USD... How much do you think the thoughts of a writer should be worth?  

 If someone can buy and gift the late Queen Elizabeth II with a $26,000,000 USD watch... How much should a writer's thoughts be worth?

 If Drake  can afford to buy a $1,050,000 USD Richard Miles watch... How much should a writer's words be worth?

 If Pharrell Williams  can buy a watch worth at least  $6.500,000 USD... How much should a writer's words be worth?

 If actress Anika NONI can buy designer Stuart Weitzman's Diamonds Dream Stilettos' for  $500,000 USD... Tell me how much would you have advised me to charge others this rich poetry collection of mine for?

  If actress Regina KING can purchase $1,000,000 Marilyn Monroe Shoes by Stuart Weitzman, how much do you think "Making Wise History" should cost?

 If Stuart Weitzman can present a pair of $2,000,000 Stilettos SHOES in a LIBRARY in N.Y.C,  how much would you have advised my book to sell for again?

  If Princess Yasmin Aga Khan can buy shoes inspired by her mother for $3,000,000 USD? How much should a writer's work be worth?

  If Debbie Wingham can order High Heels for her own birthday from Shoemaker Chris Campbell for $15,100,000 USD... How much should a writer's work be worth?

I am gifted...
I am a writer... 
I am a reader...
I am a poetria...
I am a speaker... 
I am a negotiator...
I am a businesswoman too, 
but one does not overshadow the other...
I am the first marketer of my own art...
I am...

Blessed Is HE... (ep.1)

 Blessed is HE ...

Blessed is HE who shall have the eyes

Blessed is HE who shall have the ears

Blessed is HE who shall have the words

Blessed is HE who shall have that touch

Blessed is HE who shall identify that scent

Blessed is HE who shall take those godly steps

Blessed is HE who shall cross these divine gates

Blessed is HE who shall dwell eternally in my garden

Blessed is HE who shall pasture his flock in my land

Blessed is HE who shall be fed breakfast, lunch, supper, snacks in my yard

Blessed is HE who shall unendingly drink of my myrrh

In virtue, we shall cross...

Blessed is HE...

            .... Good Night....

Between You & The Poem ~ by The Crown Prince of Dubai

 

O poem, no matter how long time gets, I would not abandon you even if the weak of poems mix with the strong(eloquent poems). my relationship with you O poem has always been a strong one. if it was not because of you(poem importance), we would not have guarded the archive of Arabic poems(Diwan Al Arab) from being lost and protected it from being trifled with. Yet, the poetry and its people (poets) have a moment of realization that distinguishes the creative poet from his imitators. O you creative poet, whatever your mouth utters, its impression affects (poem) its listeners(audience). write with (using) your mind what your heart keeps and do not bring except the strong(eloquent) of verses. who plants jasmine will not harvest Arak (a type of plant), of course he will only harvest jasmine. Since the flow of poem is zealous, I have a word for the clever minds. (who takes)the path of success that starts with thorns, wins(succeeds) by his strong assured certitude. He wouldn't turn his head to every argument made by a skeptical person and I warn him against the laughs of his encouraging people. If you have many loving friends from here and there, you cannot compare them with the ones who resent you(enviers). and that who traces people(for faults) he shall be traced (and disgraced), and that who degrades himself, everyone else shall degrade him. and the good loyal person, even if he is from your enemies, do not do injustice to him, because the oppression of a good man is shameful. and you who thinks generosity is considered by how far your right hand extends(how much you give), consider how many misers have your similar right hand(similar giving). You give and he gives(out of generosity) to this and to that, and despite that, God knows the hidden intentions A good speech(words) from a man, when he comes to you, is enough and suffices for his hand givings. and the kind person when you go to him or he comes to you, charms you with his (good)morals, friendliness and tenderness. from his great kindness to the well-spoken people like you, you feel as if he is being kind to his parents. and you who is precious to me, and you think that we forgot you, I wish you live in conten and you who is precious to me, and you think that we forgot you, I wish you live in content and a peace state of mind. I hunt with my bird as if I hunt with your cheerful rememberance although I feel sad. and I go back to the noise of the city and meeting with you is the first thing I think about. If it was not for you, fondness wouldn't have increased in me, and I swear I would sell the yearning with those who sell it. Poem came to my mind and the poem remembered you, I feel there is something between you both. Written by ~The Crown Prince of Dubai His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum~

Thank you for visiting my blog dear bloggers! It had been a while since my last post, so I was inspiring to share this poem by his highness the Crown Prince of Dubai. For more about my own publications, visit

Fascinating world of cereals!!!

So as much as I enjoy me some cereals, I must admit that at times I am fascinated, and have been lated by their compositions. This has caused me to enjoy mixing them whether I calculate it right or not... 
It is incredible to see that some can give you 30% of Iron and another 20% of Iron; thus for me when I mix them it is my way to add them all ; 30% +20% +30%... Wow! it gives a whooping 80% of Iron in my sweek cup of Almond Milk! Such an alternative from Iron pills.  Whenever I can stay away from anything that is pills, it is victory for me... What can I say? I come from a lineage that has been really engrained in natural remedies. All this although I got a Father who is a pharmacist by trade, cousins who are pharmacists and although I almost enrolled in Pharmacy myself back in the days if it wasn't that my GPA was few points; my late maternal grandmother had an incredible knowledge of the plants. 

Her presence in our home over the years when she was alive led to a dive in the world of naturopathy and phytotherapy. You would think that plants spoke to her their virtues. She carried with her generations of knowledge. Today, there is google to help you find what this or that can do, or again there is youtube! In her days while raising me in our home, there was none of that as she prepped concoctions before my eyes as a child while mom and dad were at work. Oh well, this said we shall come to her in another blog if it an interest to you. This said, after being a consumer of cereals for many, I finally decided to research into some of the healthy nutrients my being gets from it.
So whether it be Cheerios, or mini-wheats or Corn Flakes, certain nutrituents are redundant along with their percentage alone and when you mix it in a cup of milk.
 1) Calories: are the measurement unit used to assess how much energy your body get from something you eat or how much energy it burns... E.g. Cheerios give us 100 calories by itself but when consumed with a cup of milk, the quantity increases; for a 125ml cup of milk, it becomes 170 calories.

2) Lipides: According to Wikipedia, these in the fields of Biology or Microbiology are referred too as micro biomolecules that have for function to store energy, to be and inform as structural components the biological membranes of the cells of anything that may affect them or the environment that the cells are protected from. Beside the food industry, lipids are also used in the cosmetic industry and in nanotechnology. Lipids, when analyzed from a biological perspective, may be divided into eight (8) categories:
  •  Fatty acids
  • Glycerolipids 
  • Glycerophospholipids
  • Sphingolipids
  • Sterols e.g. Cholesterol
  • Prenols
  • Saccharolipids
  • Polyketides

3) Cholesterol is a type of lipid from the category of the sterols that your body generates and that must be monitored through a healthy regiment ranging from  your diet to your training program. Not soluble in water like most lipids, its chemical formula is said to be C27H46O with a molecular mass of 386. 65g/mol as per Google. As well, it is Isopropyl myristate, Ethanol, Acetone, Methanol, Chloroform, Benzene, Hexane. According to many researchers, too much cholesterol or too little cholesterol doesn't just affect the heart, but might affect your skin, your hands, your feet, and even your brain...
