Herbert Dry Poems

The moon is full
and aglow
It's beam of light
reaching far
...

Yesterday I met you on the
street
You looked another way our eye's
didn't meet
...

Who may know what tomorrow holds
Not I, I must wait for tomorrow to
unfold
It may bring a stranger to my door
...

On a quiet and moonlit
night
A rabbit and a turtle squared
off to fight
...

A sound echoes through the night, a sound so distant, a lonely
sound
A wolf calling it's mate that cannot
be found
...

I am found where I don't want
to be
Lock and load and
follow me
...

If I had the wings of an eagle over the mountains
I would soar
If I had the eyes of an eagle I would watch
the valley floor
...

Did you let me in your life
to stay
Am I something used to be
thrown away
...

I search for life and it's meaning I search
for me
Questions I ask I hunger I thirst for answers
from me they
...

The old church building has stood here for almost
a hundred years
It's days of glory are over now no one
comes near
...
