Randy McClave Poems

When I was just a tyke,
I would never walk I would hike,
And if I needed to travel far,
I wasn't taken in a car.
...

I will not be ruled by any man
Who would tell me what not to do or what I can
To no-one will I get down upon my knees
Where my existence is for them only to please,
...

She and I met so very long ago
When times were different and very slow
She had caught my heart which I won't deny
Oh how I do wish, I had let her inside.
...

My heart is heavy, but my soul is light
And like a bird I want to take flight
Leaving my troubles and worries far behind
I want to sail the skies and forget mankind
...

Though he knew that he was very sick
That smoking habit he could not kick
So in the hospital he went and stayed
And we at home just sat and prayed.
...

Jealousy is such a hated mistress
When she attacks romance without salvation
She causes anxiety and also distress
She is Satan's earliest and happiest creation.
...

I am the master of my destiny
The captain of my ship
Sailing the oceans and the sea
My fortune and providence is my trip.
...

Teach me well the child did say
As to its parent they did speak
As I want to grow up to be the best I can,
So please to me, wont you teach.
...

When he was born, God was already there
God then whispered unto him, his very first prayer,
And then God told him, that from him he would never hide
And that God would always be at his side.
...

The child was read the second amendment
With happiness and pride and contentment
How it's all Americans rights to bare arms
Then the child felt the sadness and the alarms.
