Richard McClellan Poems

What if your life was a leaf on a tree,
and one day a great wind blows,
pulls your leaf from its limb,
you flutter down to the stream below,
...

Sweet Kai-Kai,
A swing you wanted,
to play in the yard,
so I rigged one up,
...

Sitting together in the twilight,
two hearts connected on the breeze,
like the petals and the bees,
the taste of mead from these winds of passion.
...

Oh majestic peaks,

standing so tall,
...

From the morning twilight,
the sun rises too highlight,
a beginning of earthly birthright,
and set about the day,
...

He knits, he pearls,
a needle of particular loops,
that garment maker does gauge,
counts those stitches before he whirls.
...

Walking along the path,

I look upon the scene,
...

Standing fast,
no recognition you see,
for hunted you are,
the blade flutters,
...

As the sun rises,
awaken to meet the day,
one's first thought,
what's gifted my way,
...

why you wanna leave,
when all i did was love you?
why you wanna leave,
you could have helped me, through the rain,
...
