Testimonials
This is poetry that gives you leave to reflect on your own heart memories. There is poetry in everyday life, and Cleophus Franklin has masterfully, authentically captured the feelings of life in verse. As I read his poetry, I was reminded of moments in my own life, of love and loss, of creativity and nature, and was left happy for reminiscing. I recommend this book to anyone who loves poetry and its power to speak to the human experience.

More Words From My HeartA Must Have Book!
I just read a fantastic book by the one and only Cleophus (Cleo) Franklin Jr. It's a collection of stories and parables, filled with wisdom. Insights from his family (both older and younger) as well as his own accounts of overcoming and growing throughout a life well-lived.
I'm glad that I got the paperback - because this is one to keep on the bedside table. To read over and over. It's written very well, easy to read - and I particularly love the transparency in which Cleo reveals how the people and challenges in his life helped him to grow. I hope there will be more "Coffee with Cleo" in the future!

Lessons From Our Mothers and Fathers
Some books are talked about and discussed, while the best ones are meant to be read, reread, and shared. Conversations With Cleo is just that book, and the lessons within it will speak to anyone looking to be inspired professionally and personally. I recommend this book!
Conversations With Cleo
Wow! This book is perfect for reading with children ages 2 to 8. Franklin inspires their imagination and curiosity in ways I have not seen in a children's book before. The illustrations are perfect, and the story is one that I have gifted to many of my friends who have young children!
What Do You See When You Look At Me?
Cleo’s poetry takes the heart and soul on a journey through the many facets of love: hope, hurt and reconciliation, realization, pleasure and beauty. It’s a great selection to immerse yourself in.“
