Olivia Slemmermann Poems

Its origins are uncertain
A celebration most certain.
At the turn of the seasons
The vernal equinox the reason
...

My tears
Soaked my pillow last night
...

All I want is your close embrace
Feel of your fingers through my hair
It feels so good, my heart will race;
...

Fragrant nutmeg and acorns
Gold dust and sweet corn
Emerald and sapphire blooms
Where have they all gone
...

stealthily moving in the marsh, crocodile!
herds of animals thirstily they drink.
...

Evening shadows brings 'em out to feed
Verily, in herds mighty raised
Elephants aplenty amongst the reeds!
Nightly yonder they traverse crazed,
...

Hide, my angel, run!

Your smile is wasted -
...

On a bright sunny morn,
She climbed up on high,
Sat on a rainbow
to watch the world go by.
...

Spring is in the air
Birds chirping everywhere
But, where are the bees
Are they all frozen in their hives?
...
