The Foot Race

A Poem by Larry Golicz The Foot Race Turmoil, gargoyle, restless to start, Bubbling, seething, bursting the heart, Stearin, fearing, selfless apart. Know not, why not, making it true, Seeking, streaking, leaping the quew, Tensless, senseless, claiming it new. Stumbling, trembling, holding the beat,... Sign in to see full entry.

Sleepless

A Poem by Larry Golicz, 1995 Sleepless Head on my pillow, rest for the night, And closing my eyes, seeing no sight. Waking for hours, then silence, then sleep, So tired to death, I fall in the deep. Cold in my face, and dead in my limbs, And my mind goes on thinking of sins. Touching to soothe the... Sign in to see full entry.

The Garbage Can

A Poem by Larry Golicz, 1995 The Garbage Can Dancing a toss, bang, and a drop, Rocking to roll, clanging to stop. The early morning cast it grey, Striking a pose, crumpled one way. Alone in the street, long left stranded, After emptied and ill handed. Still, and slumped, a garbage can play, Creases... Sign in to see full entry.

The Two Yellow Line

A Poem by Larry Golicz, 1995 The Two Yellow Line A black night, a light, above the road, With not even a house, curb or sign, No fog belied this two yellow line. Alone, so still in this place unknown, The lines goes dark to shadows of time. A path to take, while I'm not awake? Never too late, for... Sign in to see full entry.

The Girl in the Rear View Mirror

A Poem by Larry Golicz 1995 The Girl in the Rear View Mirror Start with my heart, new life so they say, Hard at the wheel of my car today.

The Old Oak Tree at Wilshire

A Poem by Larry Golicz, 1997 The Old Oak Tree at Wilshire A stadium of green leaves wave, Cheering me with summer's breezes. Laughing and having fun, it gave. This old oak of life so pleases. When green grows yellow, when it's gold, It's not so pleased to greet the cold. Even then, this oak smiles I... Sign in to see full entry.

Dreamer

Dreamer A Poem by Larry Golicz February 25, 1996 The song of life begins it seems, With wishes made to lasting dreams. A dream of life lived far away, Dancing, smiling, singing all day. Startling brightness, shimmering gold, No shadows darken stairways bold. Leap quickly to spiralling light,... Sign in to see full entry.
