Some Moment In Lower Eden (S.M.I.L.E)

Model Gilbert Machuka: Kamanda Dynasty Photography


I'm over here chilling in my zone meditating,

Putting every step in a calculation,
Trying to execute the plan through compilation,
As I manipulate- ideas running through my mind in a competition,
All fancying a chance to be my key,
To the green gates where times works, and papi gets the paps out of  pulp;
As I get elevated in my brain-battle,
Here comes a shining starlet, blessed with the killer figure, 
A throwback to my primary graduation class, 
The resemblance of God's engineering excellency, 
I think she deserves a visionary class, who'd treat her like a wine glass,
She is exactly matching the criterion of papis selection, 
Her smile is taking me miles;
Piles me off the imaginable feeling of affection
The feel of her presence is the reference of perfection
Her melodial attenuation is temptous
Giving me a reason to confess
For she an empress, 
She only one I'd love to impress;
Riddles coming back and forth,
An inquisitive solution is approaching, 
What does it take you to see the unseen?
So blessed with skills to understand The PoiZonous diction, 
Focusing on my locus,
A battle against yes or no, 
I'm sunk in the feeling,
A feeling of her smile;
So blessed with skills to understand The PoiZonous diction, 
I'd feel to call her and hope she smiles, 
For it will be  my Some Moment In Lower Eden (S.M.I.L.E)

A number of businesses and companies lately have considered digital marketing as the best way to use for their products and services to be known of their existence, branding and the knowledge of current prices. For instance, a number of youths in Kenya are on these digital platforms for different reasons with thousands signing up to different platforms daily. Some are there to pass time while others have transformed their few hours online to make money out of it though digital marketing.

For instance digital platforms include: Mails, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube among others. For digital marketing to be fruitful, a number of pointers have to be put into place:

1.  Digital training
Being able to make use of social media platforms and having a number of following does not give one a guarantee of being a good marketer. There is more than just that. For one to perfect the manner in which he/she conveys the message to the audience, a training is required.

For instance, the way the message is packaged for twitter marketing is different from the one for Facebook. Hence, the need of professional skills for marketing that can enable the digital marketer create an impact upon the service or product being advertised. Digital training will:

  • Boost the way a digital marketer shapes the content for posting and sharing to reach targeted audience.
  • Give an individual a promising a career path that can grow fast for those who are hardworking and result oriented. The skills acquired from the training can be used by an influential digital marketer to bring the best out the companies; either his or his clients’.
  • Create the awareness of the number of digital jobs available. For instance, there are 150,000 prospected jobs online by 2020. The fact that a number of youths are making use of digital media, there is a need to undergo the training so as to close the job gaps available digitally than cry of unemployment.
  • Equip aggressive digital marketers with up to date information on how to go about with delivering the best.

One has to be assertive with the decision made to choose digital media as the way to market. We have witnessed a number of digital businesses do well in the recent past. Millions in the world today can access the internet with a number bringing their businesses on board. Others have gone to an extent of completely doing away with the old ways of marketing to embrace digital marketing.

Taking risks as an entrepreneur is bold. Some never trust the input that it will bring but all in all, it needs confidence. Companies in Kenya such as Kilimall, Safaricom’s Blaze and Homepesa Sacco Africa have grown at a fast rate courtesy of aggressiveness.
An aggressive digital marketer has all confidence that the efforts put into marketing will reap the best.

 3.      Be open minded

Take your time to read on articles on digital marketing. Study each platform individually to ensure that to meet the qualifications and requirements in the specific digital platform targeted. For instance, Instagram will require more of visual impression; how the posters are designed will either attract the audience or not.

4 .     Network
Know your fellow digital marketers. Interact with them. Attend summits and conferences that involve entrepreneurship and digital marketing. There is a need for companies to know your existence. This can be in the manner in which you brand yourself and the companies that you have worked with to give it the best.

Always look out for a long term relationship with individuals and companies with the best digital marketing strategy.

PRICK IN THE HEART

Add a smile: Photo Courtesy

At first it was on fire
For you checked on me now and then
Those moments I trusted your words accompanied by actions
Making me feel a princess to be; maybe for Prince Charles
My treat was royal
My call was royal
Greetings were queen-like
As your eyes dazzled when me you sighted
My honourable seat being your lap
Where you held me like a baby pampered with a soft rock accompanied to drift her to slumber
But for this time; they were words i yearned for
They were moments my heart craved for
Touching my long black dead hair cells on my head as we cuddled
Slowly but sure, our lips met-passionate kisses
My body aroused; goose pumps
I was convinced that this was home
Days passed, weeks,months, a year keeping abreast to my home
I believe we had attained the climax
Where I got used to you
Until when I felt a hitch
Those good mornings and good nights started to lessen
Those Whatsapp texts reduced to few words
Those dates i was used to slowly becoming dormant
My heart sunk more and more each day
Pain and agony cruised my lame heart-though I tried to convince myself i was okay
Greater distance and emptiness left me hollow though I held on to my love
My tears of joy became bitter
I wished to hold my prince but he was never to be reached
Communication became a great wall that separated our hearts
He could neither pick my calls nor reply my texts
May be his work schedule kept him busy- my only consolation
I did all that could distract me from thinking of him
I prayed nothing bad happened to him
Though, I had doubt
I should have read in between the lines
Maybe I was not meant to be the Princess
Maybe my underprivileged background couldn't allow him to carry the shame
It's three months now-never heard of him
My burning flames reduced to embers
Love is losing a meaning to me
But I still cross my fingers and believe he is still mine
Am still a diehard.

LOVE SURPASSES HURT AND HATRED

Lovely couple having dinner: Photo Courtesy

There comes a time in when everything hits a hard and high rock to a standstill 
You believe to have the power to conquer 
But the heart frails as it hurts in anguish pain
You separate yourself from everyone 
Trying to control the pain, loneliness and burning sensations 
With a whirling mind just to come your feelings, emotions and thoughts.

All through, nothing seems to be controlled
No one seems to be on your rescue
The wounds grow deep and wide
Tears rolling like tributaries of River Nile. Regrets; I wish! 
I wish I hadn't lied about this and that
I wish I had a chance to let go of the pains
Slowly but keenly eating you to nothingness
Making you feel worthless.

Try to occupy your mind
But still thoughts in the mind
And your heart of a kind
Feelings and emotions swaying your body like wind
Breathless; hopeless 
Ready to grab it
Tightly to hold it
Away you can run with it
But distance breaks the touch of it.

The ear hears
Nose smells
Hand touches
Eye sees
But the heart does it all
Though it might not show it all
Only for someone who can match the feeling
Can see if willing.

Never hurt what you love
Never harm what you care about
Never joke with what is yours
Guard it
Respect it
Claim it
Protect it
Build it
Empower it
With love, care, calmness and peace.

APPRECIATION: THE WOMAN IN HER

(Model) Verah Machuka: Kamanda Dynasty Photography


You only see her beauty
From her emanates a picture of uniqueness
No sight of any faulty
Blessed with abundant beautifulness
Inquisitive; right?
Touchable; to hold tight?
A sight on her curvaceous
A chap on a boat in a sea with tumultuous
The woman she looks.


Moves in striking manner
Elation; gorgeous!
In the street with a banner
Mind drawn away from the business
The two sockets sway the mind
Making you look stupid of a kind
And make a wish
To hell with your Wish
A brand so fine
That your life will define
The woman she looks.


The woman in her
Has a beautiful heart
The girl in her
Cares nothing but hurt
The woman in her
Portrays humility, care and kindness 
The lass in her
Executes pride, jealousy and selfishness
Struggles of personality
For a unique formality.
The Woman in her.


Within she aches
Without she pains
Cruising through daily haves and have nots
Building her book of life form the notes
Changing negatives to positives
Thoughts worth exclusive
Standing out her executive
For she cares; rational
For she works; passional 
To achieve; targets
Within her; budgets 
For she understands
The WOMAN in her is worth of ACT
Act worth Admiring
For the woman in her is a jewel.


The woman in her never prides
But she repents
The woman in her never hates
But she loves
The woman in her never lazies 
But with work she plays
The woman in her is A QUEEN OF LOVE.
