Poetry tells a story. It raises consciousness, confirms feelings, expresses doubts and rewards the person who writes it and the person who reads it. This collection of poems was written over many years; however, life's situations never go out of style, nor do the sentiments and impressions that speak to a person viewing a beautiful sunset, or being hurt by a lost friendship. Enjoy the book!

The book of poetry, entitled Poetic Psalms to the Lord & Poems About Life, attempts to focus on the communal unity and amity (or love) of families, communities, and nations for each other under the Spirit of Jesus and his commandments of love in a divisive, self-seeking world. The poetry also focuses on the light and shadows of society, in both a serious and humorous tone. The body of works also entails marital romance and "critters", a US Southeastern slang for animals. It is my hope that folks reading the material may be enlightened with the Holy Father's and the Son of Man's love for them in everyday life. Hopefully, the reader may experience the provocation of deep thought and meditation over societal phenomena and finds satisfaction in reading about the observations of life.

The Moreau River is a well-known and central feature of Mid-Missouri. This smaller river and its tributaries pass through many communities in this region and have a collateral influence on others. Its primary and secondary waters flow under highways, nourishes farms, passes by homes perched on bluffs and, in other locations, flows through smaller settlements. It is a waterway possessing a legacy spanning several counties and has either directly or indirectly touched an assortment of communities in some fashion. This list includes such towns as Russellville, Lohman, Enon, Honey Creek, Jefferson City, Brazito, Hickory Hill and California. It should be of little surprise, then, that a compilation of historical stories from around Mid-Missouri would have a title somehow connected to the Moreau River. Along the Moreau River and its tributaries emerge fascinating stories such as that of a former slave who lived to the impressive age of 113 years old. It is a legacy featuring a Lutheran congregation that had the privilege of hearing from a Native American Christian missionary who was the last chief of the Mohican tribe. Other stories highlight a young man from Hickory Hill who later served as a lawman in a bustling Wild West town. When pulling on the thread of a local folk tale or historical event, one often discovers it is connected to many unique people and events.... and, in the end, more stories come pouring forth-just like the waters of the Moreau. This compilation of history from throughout Mid-Missouri provides an engaging snapshot of many of the people and places who have come before us.

How many times do we as adults say, "Do as I say, not as a I do?" When asked by colleagues to write a children's book with a healthy eating message the author recalled a time when her son (then aged five) craved the sweets from the adult Sunday school room. The result was a humorous book illustrating a child's view of the "rules" we often impose on them.
Liz Franklin's book is full of stories. Some of the stories are of individuals who lived thousands of years ago and some are more recent, but all have relatable elements. Like the tales of old, we all have endured blisters, trials and hardships. Reading the victories of those who have gone before us lifts and causes us to rejoice at seeing the result having sought and received God's mercy and love. While feeling sadness when reading about others who failed to pursue righteous living and did not accept the offer of eternal life in Heaven. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. "Ask and it shall be given you; seek and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you." Matthew 7:7-8The inspiration for this book occurred when Elizabeth's heart was deeply touched by her pastor's message that no matter how great the sin in our lives, God is waiting to forgive all. His mercy waits for those who humbly ask Him.
Man's behaviors are driven by beliefs and truths. So, how do we believe? Why do we believe? And what do we believe (or not)? When beliefs are unfounded and truths are negotiated and no longer true, man's behavior becomes hostile, violent, chaotic, and cruel, not because man realizes he has been duped - he does not - but because man believes fervently in the altered reality that has been presented to him - that has given him power over others. You can see evidence of such behavior throughout man's history - imperial domination driven by cruelty, violence, greed, slavery, and various forms of "manifest destiny". We see it in the group identities permeating history; the chosen people, the "immortals" the one true church, the master race, and divine guarantees - "ethnocentric" all. Victor and vanquished co-exist in misery for no other reason than the perceived superiority of one or both parties. The blame and the cause lie with realities engineered to favor superiority - negotiated truths. So, what is truth? Is your truth my truth? Is there truth at all? But correction of our faulty truths is still within reach if we recoup our reality. "If you would change the world, you must change yourself." We can start with our beliefs. So, this volume explores the process of believing and beliefs, both sacred and secular. Other volumes will explore scriptures, religions and rituals - they are among the breeding grounds for negotiated truth.
