Herbert Nehrlich Poems

Logic said.
I was to follow my head.
Not my heart or
the whispers
...

So will you walk with me,
I know the paths
that lead into the dark
and wondrous shadows
...

The stem had fallen off
lay on the ground.
All petals drooped at first
but saw no choice.
...

Just like your beautiful long hair,
my thoughts have now become entangled,
inside my mind, so many years
have passed and they will never leave.
...

I'd teased the Bull so many times,
all grown-ups warned he might get loose.
His heavy chain assured me of
my overwhelming power then.
...

She has a son.
Who married, wow,
what has emerged
as one of those
...

Maples, proudly
showing
scarlet leaves,
in brazen wind.
...

We humans are facing
a dangerous moment
in our history.
An industry
...

Two lions, carved of stone
are lounging at the entrance.
Thus overseeing life as it unfolds
that early morning bare of promise.
...

You asked about your serotonin,
it's such a catchword nowadays,
though very few do understand
ramifications of this noble substance.
...
