Award-Winning Executive Cleophus 'Cleo' Franklin Jr. Releases Second Poetry Collection 'More Words From The Heart'
More Words From My Heart by Cleophus P. Franklin Jr.
Award-winning writer and retired international business executive Cleophus "Cleo" P. Franklin Jr. introduces his second book of poetry, More Words From My Heart (Volume II) - a compelling journey through human connection, love, loss, and self-discovery. This new poetic work is an extension of his first poetry collection, Words From My Heart... With Love , published in 2024.
About the Book
Poetry possesses an extraordinary power in distilling emotion into its essential form, with the ability to capture the vitality of life's most meaningful experiences. More Words from My Heart (Volume II) takes the reader on a journey of feelings similar to stories passed down through generations. Through a narrative of love, perseverance, and introspection, Franklin has skillfully harvested the commonalities of human experience.
"Poetry is storytelling in its most distilled form. The best poems don't just describe - they reveal," says Franklin. His writing transcends simple words on paper, resonating as a mirror and window - reflecting our innermost feelings while revealing new insights about life.
Franklin's second book of poetic collections is a moving and heartfelt exploration of human emotions. The dedication to the influential women in his life adds a deeply personal touch. The themes of love, loss, and the beauty of life's small moments are woven throughout his poems, drawing the reader into a reflective and intimate experience. Pieces like "Why I Write" and "Soul Mates" beautifully capture storytelling's magic and the complexity of the joy and pain we experience in relationships.
With enticing illustrations and sincere words, More Words from My Heart (Volume II) encapsulates the beauty of emotions that often transcend verbal expression. Whether discussing love, accepting loss, or seeking self-renewal, this book reminds readers that in life's uncertainties, poetry has the ability to light the way, heal, and bring people together.
Franklin eloquently expressed, "For it is the pen that is laid to rest after a poem is written, as it seeks a place to lay. However, it is the words that are written in ink that will etch themselves into our hearts and memories that will forever stay."
What People Are Saying
"Cleo has touched upon the human experience and emotion with mastery of poetic verse. With the ink of his pen, he has put words that tug at your heartstrings to the page, forcing you to pause, breathe, and reflect. I forgot how powerful poetry can be until I read his More Words from My Heart ."
"I love this poetry collection. Franklin's poetry is a moving and heartfelt exploration of human emotions, written in a style that makes you pause, reflect, and connect with cherished memories - and some that need rekindling."
"If you love sipping from a poet's cup, believe me, More Words From My Heart is one you will drink from a full cup!"
