Max M Power

Max was born in a library, surrounded by books from all over the galaxy. His gypsy soul never stayed in one place for very long as he traveled the universe, having many great adventures, all while lying on the carpet floor in the living room. His story telling abilities have been compared to Robert Patterson and Tom Clancy, without all the boring details. Today he lives in a hanger just north of Houston, Texas where he soars through the clouds on Wings of Gold, writing and telling wonderful stories.

To my uncle Phil. May you live forever in the hearts of those who love you.

Phil

You taught me so much,

More than you will ever know.

Your actions were louder than any words,

Your love for Jesus, heart, body, and soul.

We did not talk much,

But you always treated me kind.

My dear loving uncle,

You were a rare find.

So young and arrogant was I,

Thinking I knew what the Bible had to say.

You never tried to change me,

Telling me to stay true to the Lord every day.

You led by example,

You practiced what you preached.

Your actions taught me so much,

You had plenty left to teach.

I say goodbye dear uncle,

You will truly be missed.

I am strong in my faith because of you.

May the Lord bless you with HIS gentle kiss.

I’ve never considered myself to be a great writer, or a mediocre writer at that but poetry is where I got my start. I have tried before to express myself but it wasn’t until I was fifteen years old, trying to express how I felt to a girl who was walking out of my life, that I wrote my first poem.

I received my first kiss after that poem and shortly after I received my first real heartache, which of course gave birth to my being able to express myself through poetry. That very first poem is lost forever to time but the second poem I ever wrote is very raw and you can tell:

Who Gets The Girl

Do you know who almost always gets the girl? Well most of the time it’s the forceful guys. It goes all the way back to the caveman days. I mean the guy who said, Hey you look really nice with that bone in your hair, would you like to have dinner with me? never got the girl. No it was the caveman who got her by the hair and dragged her to his cave. If I’m ever to take a girl it will be by the heart and not the hair.

Like I said, raw. The poems to follow are the poems I have written since the one above. You will see how I have grown over the years. Enjoy my pain, my heartache, my dreams, all my emotions for when I write a poem I no longer think with my brain, I write with my heart..

This book is dedicated to Vanessa. If you had not broken my heart the way you did I would not be the poet I am today. Rest In Peace forever.
