    About this ebook

    Shaun was an accomplished musician, and singer. He started singing and playing the clarinet when he was young, and sang in an a cappella group in Hollywood.
    Thomas R. Thomas started writing the poems for Missing Shaun as a way to get his emotions out, to lay them down on paper, and to try to leave them somewhere safe.

      these days

      exhaust us

      we are worn

      to the bone

      stare out

      through

      vacant eyes

      human touch

      and if we
