Wolfram Böhme developed his extensive work from the Annunciation Game, where the medieval mystery game is his model. In over 50 years of his work, over 60 games, mainly on biblical themes, have been created, including Job , which he wrote and premiered at the age of 15, the cross play , Abraham , Der Junge Mose (premiered in 1990), Saul and David (Premiered October 9, 1989), seven works of mercy (premiered in 1988), as well as ten very differently designed nativity scenes for use with Christ Vespers.

His spiritual and later also nature-contemplating poetry developed out of the game, which found its way into the Herrnhut slogans (so-called third text) through publication in his first three volumes of poetry . The church musicians Manfred Schlenker and Günther Marks set several texts by Wolfram Böhme to music . Wolfram Boehme's song Israel and Christendom can be found in the Saxon hymn book Singt von Hoffnung (2008) .

Since 2002 Wolfram Böhme has also emerged as a dialect poet, who repeatedly knew how to draw wonderful miniatures of Ore Mountain life in his poems - sometimes very contemplative, then again quite frivolous. In doing so, he succeeded in expressing the feelings of many people in both spiritual and secular poems and to put them into words.

In his dialect poems, he particularly tried to preserve the Zöblitzer dialect, which stands between the East and West Ore Mountains.
