I feel this poem rolling off the tip of the tongue.. the cadence is remarkable. Where do you find these images? Perfection.

Thank you for your kind words. I wrote this poem by first doing a Google search for words uses in children's games, such as "olly olly oxen free." You know Google will make suggestions for further searches and that led to the discovery of the words I used in this poem.
