Shaun McGurgan Poems
Oh to see your abundant
belly
Rounded and so full of life
The push and pull
...
Sunburnt stare
whispering I care
whispering a daydream
to a once forgotton
...
Pouring my memories
into a cup of love
Trying to fill it up
when out and out
...
Ten pages on my phone bill
Nine nails in my front door
Eight cracks in the ceiling
Seven times I regret
...
The disk
The cold room
The nasty stare
All permutations of the
...
I'm wondering about unkempt
- disused & poorly maintained
feelings that are slowly being
bourn out again.
...
Off course from the frail music
sought by words
And the path that almost always claims the journey.
...
I would walk through the fires for thee
garments rent and eyes behold
flesh of my flesh
light of life
...
A deep breath in
a years worth
punctuated by brief
far too brief
...
We kiss in the sea of memory
It's a house and a world away
from the green of the trees
and the brown of the land
...
Tired, the weary traveller trudges on
just a little further now
a whole life time's wayward journey
t'ward a fitful night's sleep.
...
I whisper a rainbow
Yet sing the colours
I whisper a cloud
Yet sing the rain
...
Shaun McGurgan Biography
To me writing is like cooking. Add a spice, taste, look, smell. Change the texture and the layers. The good thing about writing is that you can take words or phrases out of your pot, re-use them or change them and put them back. I write for relaxation and reflection. I write best when I am in a strange place or on a journey. I like to write when I am in my back yard. I draw inspiration from many sources. My colleagues at work, local soccer games, people in transit, bars that sort of thing. I was a teacher at Silkwood School in the Gold Coast Hinterland and a teacher at Green School Bali. I have been an Australian Rules Footballer, a travelling bush conservationist, a coca-cola sales rep., a council garden worker, a uni. student, a traveller and a drinker of life's spirits. I can speak Indonesian. Now family man with mortgage, lovely partner Lianne and two girls Mythra and Jaiah. I currently live in Ubud, Bali, Indonesia)
The Best Poem Of Shaun McGurgan
Peace
The sea is at peace
The wind is at peace
But the pain in my heart
is never at peace.
