Homing: Poems (PREORDER)
Homing: Poems by Emily Decker is available for preorder as a paperback (you can order multiple copies at a discount here). Homing: Poems explores the transitory nature of belonging and how we navigate our sense of place within our communities, relationships, and the natural world.
The poems in this debut collection reflect on the interconnectedness of the paths we take and the moments along the way—between tides and seasons, in nature, amidst love and friendship, through memory and loss, over generations, and most of all, within ourselves—as we seek, find, and return to a place called home.
Decker was born in Virginia, on the Chesapeake Bay, and spent her childhood in Ghana and her growing-up years in Atlanta, Georgia. She holds degrees in literature and secondary English education from Georgia State University, and her poetry has appeared in Yellow Arrow Journal, Full Bleed, Hole in the Head Review, and Bay to Ocean Journal. Decker currentlyresides in Baltimore, Maryland, where she also loves to participate in local theater, sing, and sail.
Learn more about Decker in a conversation between the author and Melissa Nunez, Yellow Arrow interviewer.
