Randy McClave Poems

If I could only relive my life
Just to undo the mistakes and relinquish my strife
To remove the errors that I once had done
And maybe forget something, or even someone
...

I go to bed with both sadness and fear
Who will be the next voice that I will hear
Will it will be the gentle voice of someone I know
To greet me with a 'hi' or even a 'hello'
...

When she first came into this world
She immediately became daddy's little girl,
He then knew from that day that he would not get any rest
He would always be under pressure to give his daughter the very best.
...

Hello my love, it's me again,
As you think while you are sipping your gin,
The more that you ponder the more you will drink
Then of our past together, you will stop and think.
...

It is so nice to watch a little child's face;
Especially when they begin to utter grace,
Then to watch their little hands clutched in a prayer
And them knowing that GOD is listening to them out there.
...

I have myself a car and I own my own house
But, no longer am I married, so I have myself no spouse,
My car takes fuel and my house always takes repairs
The spouse took my heart which left me broke with despairs.
...

In times of stress and worries and memories of a war
Shouldn't we all be obligated to feed the needy and the poor,
Let no person starve or go hungry that I solemnly do declare
We all are brothers and sisters and children of GOD, that I swear.
...

I give you my condolences for your sad loss
So, I bring you my sympathy and also a cake,
I will pray for your loved one upon my cross
As we today celebrate their life, with this wake.
...

When our forefathers came to this great country
They never asked for permission or even applied for entry,
They just showed up and arrived and called America their new home
Then they took the land they wanted, they said it was free, I said stolen.
...

Though I do not wish to hurry my own demise
Some men though seem not to worry about their dying,
To some I think that they will be leaving others a surprise
With unpaid bills, taxes, and ex's wishing and crying.
