Betty Cagle

I have lived in Southwest Arkansas most of my life, a great place to be! I was raised in a strong Christian home, and am the youngest of seven daughters. I have been married to a wonderful man for 62 years. Since we have no children I attended college late in life whereas to have contact with children. I taught school in Arkansas and Alaska. Obtained my BSE and MSE degrees at Henderson University in Arkadelphia, Arkansas. I retired from teaching in 1991 and have been a happy homemaker since then. My hobbies are reading, piano playing, Bible study, cooking and “fi ddling” with my computer. This is my fi rst attempt in having any of my writing published. I have written all of these poems due to incidents that have happened in and around my life.

Sarah Nohova, my little student from school.
