Herbert Nehrlich Poems

My brother-in-law.
What a man!
He used to be
known as Kojak.
...

From under light pink silken gown
arose, his silly face a grin
Rudolph the red-nose circus clown
and asked about a nip of gin.
...

There was a mean, pathetic man,
much substance he had not.
He only counted one true fan
but that prevented not
...

The Postie came,
he limped along
the street, up from
the beachfront.
...

....and while he was resting his
tired head on her belly,
having his feathers ruffled
ever so gently Hawk was
...

A friend of mine,
just had a Christmas Premonition.
His Auntie saw him drowning in the sea.
The woman now observes it only was a dream,
...

At the shopping centre.
I saw Santa.
Jolly old man he wasn't.
Body Mass Index about 50.
...

Like silken hair
with sparkles
in the light of
glow-worms.
...

As the eagle soared
sharp eyes observed
life itself, as it moved
under cover of leaves,
...

'Your lips are huge',
he said, and salivated,
'I wonder if I could....',
it wasn't until later
...
