Herbert Nehrlich Poems

A preacher named Adrian Finn
had considered that living in sin
with a nubile young maid
who'd ensure he'd get laid
...

Am Fenster sitzt ein grauer Spatz
beaeugt von einer alten Katz'.
Der Vogel frisst vom Napf Getreide,
fuellt damit seine Eingeweide.
...

A fat and lazy pussycat
was eying, up a tree, a rat.
The pussycat had been neglected
since nasty flaws had been detected
...

My conviction that,
for the first 10 years,
breast cancer deaths are
increased in women
...

.....and why, my sweet do I not miss you,
why do I feel no pain sensation?
There is no mad urge to possess you,
I do not need you for salvation.
...

There's talk again
of a republic, Jeeesus.
A lad named Turnbull,
rich and so recalcitrant
...

It measured just below an inch
the member of the bird called finch.
A hippopotamus can bridge
the width of any average fridge.
...

He was a stickler,
and spent his day in search of
her little tickler.
...

Joe is no plumber,
nor a flutist or drummer.
'Twas a clever plan.
...

Once stung a wiener pig will scratch its burning skin,
dispersing venom through lymphatics to subdue
all pains and itching caused by one small stinger pin,
yet moving arms will give all bees another clue.
...
