Treasure: The Poetic Jewel

By Taíana Valentíne

Treasure: The Poetic Jewel, is a collection of Taiana's humanitarian poetic resonance using her experiences in the arts to tell written segments about roots of love against wethering dispora, finding inspirational social constructs in the current times, and raising awarness to urban generational welfare and its battle with oppressive melancholy. The topics you will find in this book consist of love, family; inspiration; sadness; loss; truth; discrimination; oppression, and motivation. Some of her notable poems include "Stop the Violence & Increase the Peace," "Positive Train," and "The Strength Within." Her shaping of chiming written poetic jewels seeks to garner the idea "Although we have all lessoned, we shall still fly like kites to reach the highest versions of ourselves excelling into our truest potentials."
