Best Max Poems

by Max Burchett

A writer, singer and songwriter,
A crooner, a teller of tales,
A dream maker, a soul shaker and captivator,
Hoping in verse and prose he prevails.

New Year’s Eve

I need to feel the trade winds blow
To know they have my heart in tow,

Here in the twilight of this hour
I feel the grandeur of God’s power.

The Sun, a ball of golden fire
Rises with my heart’s desire

That this New Year will offer love
As...

There is so much we can do.
I hope we can,
I believe we can.
Let your love show
For those who cannot.
Just have to see
What a new world can be.
Changing course of fate,
Help before it...

Black swans are a thing.
That thing never seen before,
Not known to exist,
What has never happened before.

If you can think of it,
Can expect or imagine it,
That swan is not black, or a swan
Just a strange possibility.

I discovered my own personal swans
Surprised by, not discovered
Personal...

Max the Rex
I had a cat whose name was Max the Rex
A grumpy cat so fat so mean and large
His paws would tear up all my  costly rugs
His personality aloof and smug
Except when he would feel the urge to eat
He’d purr and mew and...

I drive around a bi-cycle
a cycle bike psycho 
at night a light’s on
my-ma (ma) mountain bike
oh it’s a little delightful 
my seat on my cycle 
I ride all night on
my-ma (ma) mountain bike 

I’ll jump the curbs in acceleration,
and pedal push to my destination,
don’t pay...

Child caring Father Christmas,
Messed with drops from Max's ass,
Gave little Max a new pamper
Without losing his temper....

Beyond Mad Max

Australian actor Mel
Phoned his wife to give her hell.
Unknown to Gibson she recorded his rant
And we all got to hear his unholy chant....

Felis Maximus - 
Oh so male with fiery fur, 
And sometimes with a matching temper, 
You show cuteness that deceives
Those humankind who fail to please.
For one misguided fool who dares
Invade your realm unawares
Will likely meet with warning hiss, 
And not some softly planted kiss -...

Little Max to Alton towers did go,
He went with his granddad, who some trains did want to show.

He loves his trains does Maxy, his excitement was mounting fast
Until he went on the “Runaway Train” then even his granddad was aghast.

The train set off WOO, WOO...

he was so very...

My name is Max…
I live at home with my mom and my dad,
Every day they both remind me,
That I’m the best pet they’ve ever had.
I scratch on the door to get out,
And my name is on my own bowl,
And they never have to shout at...

There once was a cat named Max,
Who wanted to play the sax.
But alas he had paws,
No fingers, just claws.
No way could Max play the sax....

Stress levels on max,
110 percent no time to relax,
He's got so many things going through his brain,
That the average man would simply go insane,
Slices on his wrist to try and ignore the pain, 
But day after day it still remains the same,  
They say...

waves cycle around
ebbing turquoise seas
ripples do tease

waves swim fathoms deep
returning to navy blue seas
smiles of pearly foam

surf currents of waves
navy blue road flows
salty drinks on deck

waves oxygenate seas
whales dolphins sharks snappers
ride wave vehicles

waves do break
upon many shore lands
seen crabs clams

waves flow and roll
white pearls teeth...
