Author Shares Prose Highlighting Canadian Beauty

Sherry Sikstrom pens new book of stories, poems and thoughts about rural Alberta, Canada

ONOWAY, Alberta – After writing her first book, Telling Tails, author Sherry Sikstrom wanted to share more stories from her wonderful life in Alberta. In doing so, she now pens her newest book of stories, poems and feelings with Tails Trails and Campfire Stories: Photographs, Poetry and Musings of an Alberta Farm Girl (published by Trafford Publishing).

“In a society that has become jaded, lost is the feeling of down home country or small town friendships, along with the sense of fellowship,” says Sikstrom. “I believe this book reminds us of a simpler time, when neighbors were friends and supported one another. So much violence in popular media leaves us searching for solace and a more gentle and kind world.”

Excerpt from the poem “Seasons”:

A single leaf falls like a tear

As the fall begins this year

Summer days come to an end

And the fall begins again

The colors change overnight

And reflect their beauty in the light

The Canada geese, heed the call

And gather up to fly each fall

Tails Trails and Campfire Stories is a collection of Sikstrom’s own thoughts, poems and photos sharing experiences of her life, history and feelings spent in beautiful rural Alberta, Canada.
