Randy McClave Poems

As I lay there dying
You are somewhere not crying
As you know not where I am.
I ask the Lord to forgive you
...

When you lie or cheat or falsely judge
Then against yourself GOD he will hold a grudge.
He will look down upon you without pity or shame
Then in his book of life he will not call your name.
...

Death will come to us one an all
Maybe in the springtime or even in the fall
Or even in the summertime or maybe the winter
But, whom knows when death might enter.
...

GOD counts the tears that we have cried
GOD knows the times that we have lied
He knows all, that enters and leaves our mind
And he knows too, if we are evil or if we are kind.
...

She came and gone like a thief in the night
Though she wasn't a stranger she was my wife
She robbed and stole and then broke my heart
If only I knew how she really was from the start.
...

I walked towards the ocean
As she began to roll and began to roar
Then she put in in a daze, I remembered today
As I thought of a woman, that I knew once before.
...

I felt the blowing of the wind
As it enters my soul from deep within
It entered my soul, and wouldn’t let go
It is the wind from where life begins.
...

The tears of a woman
Which can be used to deceive
The many weak minded man
And the man who will easily believe.
...

I will not throw up my arms
I will never call retreat
I will not turn and run away
From the truth and what I believe.
...

Love lasts forever, isn't that true
Shannon asked that once of me,
And with a smile on her face
I then spoke with no haste,
...
