Often humorous, she penetrates to the deep current of human relationship. Many people who don&#8217;t read poetry find themselves drawn to Cheryl&#8217;s truthful, clear style.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p> After nursing school, the writer worked as a public health nurse in a rural Hispanic community in Colorado. Currently she and her husband, Mike Miller, are part of the Shepherds Field intentional community on a sheep farm in the hills near Philippi. She works as a nurse at the Barbour County Senior Center. <\/p>\n<p> Cheryl Denise will have wool blankets from her farm for sale in addition to copies of her book. <\/p>\n<p> Admission to the program, which includes dinner, is $14. Reservations are required and should be made by Friday, Feb. 15 by calling the language and literature department at 540-432-4168 or email: <a href=\"mailto:langlit@emu.edu\">langlit@emu.edu<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Poet Cheryl Denise Miller The language and literature department at 糖心Vlog will feature the narrative poetry of Cheryl Denise Miller at its next Writers Read program, 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. <a href=\"https:\/\/emu.edu\/now\/news\/2008\/wva-poet-to-read-works-at-emu\/\" target=\"_self\" class=\"more-link\">... read more <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">about W.Va.
