Samia’s debut book of poems, Visions of the Soul, is from every point on the spectrum. Some poems will speak to certain readers more then others, but it is important that each verse is the voice of the poet, of a mind that needs to make sense of this world, of a heart that feels the effects of every moment in this life, and perhaps of a memory that is striving to surface. Nonetheless, recalling our yesterdays gives birth to our many forms of expression.

" Visions of the Soul by Samia Muqueem is a refreshing and remarkable book. The title is fitting for the deep soul fountains of emotions that runs through her poetry in Memories, Opinion about Love, and Presence. I enjoyed Profound Sentiments, Dreams, Tradition, and Nostalgia. Her writings are full of emotions of life, love and following your heart and using your imagination to make your dreams come true. Innovations of her art flowed through the lines of Flashbacks, Water and Fire, Analysis, Heartbeats and Experiences. Visions of the Soul is a recommended majestic read." ----- ~ Pier Marie Tylor, author of Abstract.

Donna Laird, author of Forever Yours and Katrina’s Destiny says, "I have read a lot of poetry in my life. I have gotten chills with Edgar Allen Poe and his morbid rhymes. I have been saddened by Emily Dickinson’s outlook on the world, and now I have been moved by Samia Muqueem in her poetry "Visions of the Soul." The poems are moving and heartfelt. You can tell a lot of time went into writing each and every poem. If you like poetry then this is definitely the book for you. I hope to see more from this talented author."

" Poetry within Visions of the soul has comforted and uplifted me, allowed me to express my innermost feelings and explore my nature and spirituality. Every poem is very close to my heart and I wrote because my heart had something to say. Poetry, to me is a good medicine, through which one can cry out the soul’s own secret joy or give closure to that which would otherwise fester."
