Randy McClave Poems

Raindrops falling upon my head

I could count them one after another
...

In the garden I saw a Rose
It stood alone and seemed so sad,
But, I knew it was strong and made others glad
So, I wrote this one prose.
...

If you were to wear my shoes
Would you do the things that I have done,
Fight the battles that I must fight
Or would you turn around and run.
...

I stand alone when I fight
I use my intelligence and my might,
Then I use my left, followed up with my right;
I am a boxer.
...

Happy Mother's Day, Mother
Unlike you there is no other,
You gave me life and a home and a yard
And all that I gave you, was a card.
...

I am that bad penny
Called by my friends, not many,
As I have a very few, if any.
...

She said that for me she had some advice
I excitedly asked her what was the price,
Her reply was simple, "it is free",
And only because I am a typical he.
...

How could we look upon God's face
Without any shame or utter disgrace,
Especially after a life that many have led
Where hate and jealousy is all that they believed and said.
...

When I had money to give or to send
I became my sons very best friend,
He called and he visited me all of the time
Which cost me every bill, quarter and dime,
...

I asked Robert Burns
What inside his soul yearns,
He looked at me and then he spoke
But, then I awoke.
...
