Herbert Nehrlich Poems

Tonight the conversation is
let's say productive,
and somewhat lively,
all words are spoken
...

We have a new clown in this town
whose ragged old nickers are brown
all the writing is limp
as if penned by a wimp
...

A pelican sat by the pier
was waiting for some fish
he searched afar, he searched anear
and made a secret wish.
...

'Twas early in the morning when I woke.
An eerie silence had so sneakily descended,
or was it the perception of a loss,
a novel emptiness, unknown to me 'til now?
...

She had blue questionmarks
coming out of her blue eyes.
Her lips were too blue for kissing
and a blue-tongue lizard was her pet.
...

I tried so much harder
to get into your larder,
there were fragrances in
and a devillish grin
...

Wer eine Mutter hat die lacht
und selbst sich manche Freude macht,
die morgens aufsteht und erst gaehnt
und dann so nebenbei erwaehnt
...

Robert Burns
the one who turns
inside the grave
where poets, brave
...

So ruhig fliesst der Rhein
kein Fischlein denkt
kein Fischer lenkt
den Kahn fuer sich allein,
...

What a breath of fresh air
and a touch of sweet lips
back you are in my cyberarms
please do pardon my stare
...
