Herbert Nehrlich Poems

I'm in it!
The dog's been moved.
I took his place.
It's airy, noisy
...

I'm good at vibes.
Always have been.
Sometimes, when
you pick one up
...

I made a heart for us again, my love.
Here on the beach.
It has our names inside,
is within reach.
...

A most unusual flower,
of colours, oh so bright.
A tropical rainshower,
an early morning flight.
...

My safe was hidden in the wall,
I had cemented it inside,
but in that year, in early Fall
I tagged along for a brief ride
...

My uncle had an Angus bull
who liked to have his belly full.
Inside his gut there was a rumble
he was polite, we called him Humble.
...

Yes, I remember still
the longed for moment
in midafternoon,
when eyes could open.
...

How happy are the cows in grasses green! ! !
A steer who spots a lovely blond-haired cow,
and makes advances when her tail is seen
to wave invitingly.
...

There once lived a spindly giraffe
it was made of some high-flying stuff
when its legs got arthritis
and his eyes blepharitis
...

And will you hold my hand
a li'l bit longer please?
I cannot breathe without it,
my heart won't beat, believe me
...
