Homecoming

The poems in Homecoming are grouped according to the directions of the Medicine Wheel: East for Beginnings, South for Innocence, West for Going Within, North for Elder/Wisdom, and the Centre for the Creator and the Great Mystery. Each section reflects both the universal human journey of growth and learning, and the author's personal experiences-spanning childhood, marriage, divorce, parenthood, and her parents' aging. The poems also explore the author's journey to reclaim and celebrate her Native heritage.
