Randy McClave Poems

The other day I was weeping
The tears keep coming to my eyes,
Then I looked outside my window
As though compelled to look toward the skies.
...

We shall not pass this way again
Spoke the old man to his friend,
For many lives, we have known
And many children, we've seen grown.
...

This is my house,
Treat it as such,
It is where I dwell.
It is my castle,
...

In deep thought
as I walk
The world passes me by,
Then suddenly in a wink
...

If you come by
And I'm not here
Do not worry with a tear,
Just give a smile
...

I held your hand,
To help you stand,
So that you wouldn't fall.
And so we went,
...

When my arm is cold and numb
And laid to its final rest,
What would be the last thought they would have
If you could remember or relive one last quest.
...

I cannot count the tears
Nor can I count the hate
Though I can only count
The Men, that hate did take.
...

As the years do come
And the years will go
And the years keep rushing on by.
Will you have done for me,
...

You wear a crucifix around your neck
Is it in decoration or a sign of your true belief
As around my neck their lies nothing at all,
Because in my heart, lies the love that you cant see.
...
