Under the Same Sky

poems

by Carolyn Chilton Casas

This poetry collection expresses reverence for the beauty and the mystery of life.

In a voice ripe with experience and gratitude, Carolyn Chilton Casas draws from her background in Reiki and metaphysics to shine light on how everyday moments inform the miracle of existence.

With equal ease, Under the Same Sky explores themes of impermanence and grief alongside those of joy and awe.

The poems reach beyond “time’s precious edge” in a sincere quest to make sense of difficult times and bewilderment following loss.

“These are, indeed, poems that ring like ‘a dinner bell to a table set for all who care to come.’ In her second collection, Carolyn Chilton Casas brings clarity, wonder, respect for the ways things change, and a keen eye for ‘the everyday holy.’ In a time of disconnect and fear, these are essential poems of celebration, connection, opening to grief, and praising the life that remains.”

—ROSEMERRY WAHTOLA TROMMER, author of All the Honey,
host of The Poetic Path

“‘Waking is a miracle,’ as Carolyn Chilton Casas writes in the opening poem of this wondrous new collection, reminding us [over and over again] that we are here not just to awaken our hearts, but also to give ourselves fully to ‘the mysteries we carry unaware.’ Her poems open us to the everyday awe of simply being alive, seeing the light in the eyes of another, and holding onto the kindnesses we offer each other. ‘I want to be open / for the world to pull me in,’ she writes, and as we read and re-read Under the Same Sky, we will come to see the same is true for us; we too want to receive all the beauty and love available in each new moment, in each of these carefully rendered poems.”

—JAMES CREWS, author of Unlocking the Heart: Writing for Courage & Self-Compassion
