Randy McClave Poems

I once thought that I saw you in a mall
Your name I just wanted to call,
I truly thought that I had saw you there
So, into the crowd I did wantonly stare.
...

The three R's that we all need
Should not be ‘riting', ‘rithmetic' or to read,
If you look around our country then and now today
You would understand quickly, what I do pray.
...

The end of the world is soon coming
Because in science we didn't listen,
The pipers are piping the drummers are drumming
The sky is dark and the rivers no longer glisten.
...

Do not pout and do not whine
If at my restaurant you want to come inside to dine,
A mask upon your face must be wore
Before you enter the restaurant's door,
...

I wished that I was all alone
But, then I wish that I was a clone,
Then I would always be smiling and contented be
I would then be so very calm and happy.
...

It's my body! and my choice
They all screamed with one voice,
As they marched and they chanted
Science they all recanted.
...

You can talk until you're blue in the face
You can talk about any person's belief or race,
About politicians you can also complain
Or the reason why there is no rain.
...

She would tell me all that her and I would do
She would always say just, "me and you",
And she told me this when no-one was around
As though I was a secret, not being meant to be found.
...

If there is no Heaven and no Hell
Where saints and sinners go to dwell,
Nowhere for us to head to when we die
If the afterworld Is nothing, but a lie,
...

The painter paints what he sees
And a poet writes what his soul feels,
In the end they all do what they please
While the politician just seeks appeals.
...
