Randy McClave Poems

Behind every great man there stands a woman
I have heard that time after time before
Standing behind him and keeping him strong
There is a woman who is opening life's door.
...

Nothing Lasts forever,
That's what my father use to say,
And nothing ever stays the same,
For someday it all will pass away.
...

In years from now when I am dead and gone
Will people read the words that I had wrote
If they do will they agree with what they read
And if so truly, understand the feelings I had spoke.
...

Where are you going to run
When you have no place to run
Especially, when the wind gets cold and wet,
When you will had looked all around,
...

This is the true story
About a confused little boy
Who stood just above five foot tall.
But his mother called him a man
...

They call you a cow
When you walk down the street
That doesn't make any sense to me,
As I have been to a farm once before
...

When you have no one to blame
Then who will you blame
For your suffering and your pain,
Would you blame it on GOD
...

Do not surrender, do not retreat, do not give up that fight
These are the words of encouragement that I will not forget
And always fight for the just, and the truth, and the right.
...

The sea calls for all man
Though it, many try to deny
From the calling of the wind
To the seas salty cry.
...

When my arm is cold and numbed
And then laid to its final rest
I wander what thought that it could have
If only to God and man it could confess.
...
