Herbert Nehrlich Eyes Poems

There was a coldness in her eyes,
though all her words were flowing freely.
'I love you so and never will
abandon you or let you go.'
...

Two jewels in your lovely face
may not be just described by me.
Cannot conceive a single phrase
to do them justice, literally.
...

And who I ask you academic minds
would find the eyes of cows attractive
most humans would consider putting blinds
to cover bovine faces, though they are pro-active
...

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

'Twas never tenderness
nor something in myself
that prompted me to do
what you found so adorable.
...

Death did persuade me,
sweet promises of love.
I woke and found myself
in soft embrace of arms
...

Their eyes are rather shifty
they have been caught out cold
I find it pretty nifty
that I'm the one they told
...
