A Delightful Book of Poems about Family, Faith, Art, and the Countryside

Many of us neglect to remember how it was like growing up, the hobbies we thoroughly enjoyed, the simple pleasures we kept , or even what family truly means. The rush of today’s advancements often blinds us of the simple happiness that sustains our lives. Doris Autry’s new book, Stroke of Country brushes us with the words written with much wisdom and heart to give reminder of the small joys that matter most in life.

A wonderful collation that weaves fond thoughts of friends, seasons, celebrations, past times, reflections, God and love, the book is a warm and poetic telling about many significant things each one of us share. Incorporated with the author’s own recollections growing up, whether it’s having a special grandma and grandpa, close friends in one’s life, art’s beauty, faith in God, or even the falling of the snow and the splendid summers, this book is one that readers can take delight from with its warm and reminiscent appeal. 

“The title of my book, Stroke of Country, is something I have dreamed about for years. I have been drawing and writing all my life. It has always been a source of joy for me. I hope that these poems will be a source of joy for you the same,” states the author.

Written with a lovely flair, this collection of poems is sure to warm up any person’s day with its perfect blend of nature, art, and spiritual tones.
