James Casey Poems

Star Gazing

We stopped to watch the stars last night.
The stars, that filled the sky
...

Sun Night

Sometimes my life seems just like a sunset
Gorgeous at first then gone with regret
...

This Is What We Have

The best we have in life is a story and a song
Chips n beer a bit of love and longing to be-long
...

Why

I see you in my dreams
I hold you in my dreams
...

Will She

In an isolated corner of a smoky room
Silent, eyes wide, hiding in gloom
...

You Left Me

I'd wish upon a star in the sky
To light up my face
...

Save Me

Somebody save me, my thoughts are twirling,
The ground is spinning, the ceiling whirling.
...

Dear Mother

Mother, do you remember me?
I am your son, your other son
...

Gone Away

I've tried and tired and I've tried again
But I'm always on the losing end.
...

The new men are coming today
For a while' they'll be in the way

Here they come, all happy, not sad
...
