~ Here Within God's Garden ~
I watched you in the garden In pretty pastel hue, In every tender leaf of dew, I touch the life of you. I saw you in the blossoms, The tinge of pink and red, Your vibrancy and color, My special life long friend. I saw you in the butterfly, Flitting to and fro, With happy carefree heart, The angel friend I know. I saw you in my puppy, The loyalty and mind, To always be so very near, Gentle, loving, kind.  I saw you in the empty chair
Beside me in the sun, I heard your softest whisper, Your presence, only love. I saw you in the flying birds Their cheery, chatter, call 'Twas you close by to hear, Singing to my soul. I saw you in the roses Each fragrant petal fold, Yes, here within God's garden Your heart I always hold. Soft Whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © Sept. 2009 |
~ The Flower Shoppe ~
As I wandered through the door There went the tinkly bell The lady smiled as I approached What would you like, do tell... So I began my choices Of how it had to be Arranging the perfect bouquet To express the heart of me A warm and gentle softness Blending colour so divine Some sparkles in a dewdrop The sweetest fragrance you can find It need not be the biggest Or most expensive of them all Just let it say, 'you're special' Within each petal fold It needs that heavenly touch A slip or two of blue Do add that pretty pastel pink Oh, that is lovely too Now I'll just tuck in a little kiss For I want to say - Thank you Soft 'n' fragrant whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © 2006 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au The petals of a bouquet glistening with dew A heartwarming gift From my heart, just for the heart of you Having a true forever friend, across the sky, inspires a lot of beauty for we see by heart, as God sees, you and I. ~Blossoms~ ~*~ Beautiful Blooming Parrots ~*~ |

~ My Flower Waltz ~
As I meander along the garden path I ponder flowers in my view, They smile at me with angel faces sweetly Reminding me of you. Some blossom in the fresh delight of spring And some in wintry days of fall, Others glow in summer heat all special With a unique rapport. The vibrant orange of nasturtium Profuse in summer show, Proclaim that my world is a colorful garden Blooming With everyone I know. Growing softly in amongst the greenery Is the pelargonium soft pink, Displaying a throat of sweetest velvet a friend Who engraves enduring heart imprint. The gladioli burgeoning beautiful and strong Blooming generously on every side, Calling to me of those loving friends who reach With arms extended wide.
Planted in little terracotta pots
Are the pansies, each so pretty cute, Always there, soft and friendly warm and open My heart they truly suit. Snapdragons that snap, to make me laugh, Sweet peas, graceful lilies and tulips bright God's blessing of all I need His comfort Of lasting delight. The Morning glory each new sunrise Greets me with a beloved smile Entwining deep into my heart, forever Close, through every trial. I treasure the rose as a speciality For it's rich loveliness to know, Pungent fragrance emanating-meaningful By the thorns that made it grow. The daisy may seem common With wholesome purity so fair, Yet, so enhance a bouquet's palette By the perfection that they share. But the sentiment of calming peace Is found in cherished blue columbine, Unfolding soft and delicate, tender Within this gentle heart of mine.

~ Showers Of Flowers ~
Flowers to me, that's what you always are Flowers to my heart, fragrant showers, pretty buds, flowers on my path May all we share bring flowers to fall within your heart  May showers of flowers float forever
Falling on your path Soft and pretty things all that you impart Thank you for showering me flowers always To nestle in my heart Soft Whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © 2006 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au If only the scent of the rose was truly me, you would feel so much of God's love; your heart by now would be overflowing Millie  ~ You Are Not A Little Flower ~
My friend, you are not just a tiny bud You are a whole bouquet You are not just a little scent But a never ending fragrance wafting in from far away You are not just a single bloom That opens on the morn You are a whole garden of delight I see from every room You are not just a little flower Of a single tender hue But a multi-colored, multi-layered beauty Brushed by the love of God in you You are not just any unseen blossom Upon a lonely stem You are a bower covering my heart My very lovely friend Soft whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © 2007 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au  If A Flower I Gathered...
If I would pick a flower for you I'd choose velvet ruby red, For all the lovely things you do For all the loving words you said. If I found a flower you could keep I'd surely gather soft pink, For you are so very pretty In all you feel and think.  If, I cut a flower for your heart
I'd single out a baby blue, For all the gentleness you show The tenderness of you. When searching, flowers for your soul I would select soft gold, Because you are treasure, A gift for me to hold. If I wanted the prettiest flower For you, I'd collect purest white, Because you speak to me of God Aglow with His beautiful light. When I might pluck the flower I'd like for you, always I would choose, A glorious violet mauve, So soft, your royal hue. If, I might send you pretty flowers Then for you, I'd pick a whole bouquet, Every delightful shade, to portray Every sweet li'l thing I want to say. Soft whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © May 2009 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au ...would just one flower do, from me to you with love so true, you surely knew...... ~blossoms~ |

~ My Dream Garden ~
Long ago, oh way back when... I had such a lovely dream, All about my Auntie's garden, things never as they seem. Peering over her back fence... a secret world came into view, I opened wide a picket gate and tentatively stepped through. My feet took me far away... over old mossy cobblestones, I glanced this way and that excited to be so all alone. So I twirled and I danced... birds singing fancy free, Squirrels bounced up to chirp hello, fruit dangled ripe from every tree.  I spied the tinniest frog...
hopping with joy among the leaves, I followed his every wriggle to his pond within the reeds. Two white swans came drifting by... serene and pearly white, I reached to stroke their pearly necks oh, they flapped their wings in flight. Honeysuckle curled around the arch... with cute caterpillars to see, Dewdrops sparkled on the lilies all of this put here for me. The sun shone warm, on rosebud velvet... unfurling delicate hue, Fluffy clouds formed friendly shapes I lay smiling, in soft azure blue.  I munched on golden gooseberries...
and sucked the morning glory, Crawled within the cubby hedge where I told ladybird her story. Soft bunnies scrambled on my lap... butterfly kisses tickled my cheeks, The fountain gushed with raspberry bubbles in my paradise of delightful treats. My softest friends and Jesus... were all that wanted me, But then pop, my eyes awoke another day was here to see. I wished my dream could last for always... such was its pure delight, But now I visit my heavenly garden every time I shut my eyes at night.

~ Garden Whispers ~
Have you heard the secret in life's garden I hear it when I'm still A whisper very sweet and low My heart to warmly fill I wish you were very close to hear The mystery that I have found But, if you go into your garden You'll hear its' lovely sound We hear it usually if we're hushed Or when we're filled with tears God breathes so we may know In whispers very near My Child I love you so Soft Whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © 2006 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au  ~ My Angel Garden ~
I have an angel garden Where morning glory never fades, And sweetest angels play there In the pretty garden My loving Father makes. I want the lovely angels To be welcome anytime, So my garden shall be arranged Where they'll be at home Within this heart of mine.  So in my precious garden
I'll play music ever sweet, I'll seek to be more thankful And ask the Lord to guide me As I follow in His feet.  Then in my lovely angel garden
Where the birds still softly call, A myriad of angels play And though unseen Will stay to care for all. For in a peaceful angel garden God's angels love to linger near Always gathered close Protecting and comforting To wipe away our tears.

~ Lush Garden Oasis ~
Quiet summer moments, dreamy days, to pause away from the hustle and bustle
Just to sit and ponder, in the solitude apart,
Where I so softly pray, gently with my Lord Jesus, for His peace to flood my soul.
Breathing Him in, exhaling His love, desiring to be whole.
Listening to all He may say, how He would have me be, filled with Himself
That His life shall flow forth, as a sweet healing stream,
His heart of precious secrets now opening, unfolding, unfurling
Exploding the more.
Oh, I so would like you to come, together to chat, and bubble over with joy
In my lush oasis, safe and warm.

 ~My Peaceful Garden Of Friendship~
Friends are my garden, beautiful and rare Roses of sweet fragrance, everywhere to share Infinite gentleness, nestling in my heart Emanating color that showers on my path Nourishing my soul, so weeds can never grow Delicate little blossoms, opening up to know Softness that cascades, down from the sky Hope for ever after, in the pretty butterflies Inbetween tucked buds, of variegated hue Pretty are the memories, the loveliness of you. Growing, oh so precious, every passing day Anticipating what we share, all along on the way Reaching for a love, that shall never ever die Desiring to know the wonder, of the garden in the sky Everlasting friends, that truly can not fade Nurtured in the love, our Heavenly Father gave. Soft Whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © 2005 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au “No love, no friendship, can enter our garden without leaving some fragrance in it forever.” Heartwhispers  ~ I Come To The Garden ~
To wander in the loveliness, I come here with no other thought in view Than to find my special friend and spend some time with you What more could we ever need, for such a spendid time Than this warm and cozy spot, a favourite of yours and mine There is the climbing sweet entwining rose, exhuding fragrance so divine A little path leading somewhere to explore, unknown treasures there to find An awesome lake, with views untold, quite near for squirming toes We'll wade right in, to jump the ripples and make bubbles just to throw Then, when we are all done, we'll ache to find a comfy chair To snuggle in the pretty cushions, with lots of chat to share. You'll pour the tea and I the milk, and sip, while flowers we re-arrange Sometimes we'll meander in the garden, or just look, while leaning on the rail Ah, such is the pleasant visit, suiting us quite perfectly Let's come here much more often now, the favourite spot for you and me It will still be here tomorrow, places like this can never go away We just have to imagine heaven and our hearts are there to stay. Soft Whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © 2005 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au Pause just now and smell the roses Pause together now in every way Pause just now and thank our Heavenly Father. For every moment of the day  |

It is only if we pause to listen We will never feel alone, Hushed, quiet in the stillness To hear the gentle tone. Flowing in sweet harmony Crescendo now aglow, Beauty calling to our heart A perfect love to know. Deep within our spirit Soft whispers in the night God's loving arms are reaching near To lift us to His light.

There's something missing in my garden An imbalance on the shelf, Could it have a little more interest Does it represent myself. I have the drought resistant The prettiest knick-knacks on the bench, An array of succulent beauties And those with a fragrant scent. But it still is lacking color A soft and gentle hue, Oh, I wish upon my garden shelf There perched a lovely you. Soft Whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © 2004 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au The heart is a garden That always has room For the flowers of kindness And friendship that blooms!  ~ Our Morning Garden ~
It's morning in our garden As we walk together here Collecting pretty posies While the air is fresh and clear The mist is gently floating Yet soon will drift away Immersed now in the stillness Our hearts know what to say The sun is almost bursting Upon the mountain range Perfect is the dawning There's nothing we would change I whisper, look the tender dewdrops Reflecting rainbow shine You lean to smell a fragrance Oh, our garden is sublime Together here among the flowers Where we can never part Our Father made us sisters In the garden of our heart Derry's Heart Poems © 2005 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au |

~ I Miss My Garden Friend ~
I took a little thoughtful stroll, a little turn around the garden well
It was nice, I enjoyed the sunshine the pretty flowers and the morning dew
But, there was something not quite right, I realised, I was missing you
I could hear the birds chirping happily, the sky a panoramic view
White fluffy clouds like fairy floss, soft, I couldn't reach, the rustle of the leaves,
I knew it was lovely in the gentle breeze, but even more, I was missing you
It was calm and still, in the solitude I could feel the quiet reverie
Could almost hear the flowers whispering (I imagine that they do)
But, I wished for someone special to share the prettiness...
I was missing you

I walked into a garden A garden made of love Where roses bloom in every room And days are filled with hugs I turned around a corner And found a lovely nook I felt someone so near But was too shy to look I tiptoed down the garden path And found a little swing I eased myself into the seat The prettiest ever seen I heard a happy whistle Such a special little tune And then I understood where I was I had found the heart of you Soft Whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © 2005 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au Enclosed in Gd's arms, our love will last forever  Derry photo © 2006 ~ Thyme In My Garden ~
More of my thyme than not Is tied into the special thyme I spend Cultivating my garden And nurturing my flower beds I collect so many pretty leaves And add them to my growing heap Then ponder on a little re-arranging Choosing beauty there to keep I gather up sachets of goodness To scatter all around Then sprinkle on the blessing So the blossoms will abound I try to steady weeping stems Safe from storms behind the picket fence Kneeling often just to breathe in The very sweetest scents Oh, I think my lovely garden Is the one my Father loves to send 'Tis always thyme to enjoy the wonder Of very special blooming friends Soft Whispers in thyme from Derry's Heart Poems © 2006 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au A rose garden holds such lovely perfume; when it is shared, it can transform the simplest moment into a beautiful gift of love  Derry Photo © 2006 |

Just as the sun arose I felt the coolest breeze So I slipped into the garden A few dewdrops There to tease As I meandered through the fragrance I imagined that I heard A footstep on the path I thought I spied a glimmer I felt it in my heart A pretty rose then caught my eye I leant down to breathe it in, Then I felt it wafting by again A presence in my garden Like someone there unseen I'm sure I heard a little giggle As I glanced this way and that A gentle rustling in the leaves Oh, it made me feel so glad As upon a shady bench I sat I whispered as I pondered Warmed by God's glistening rays And there just slipping out of view I'm sure I spied a pretty angel In my heart, I knew that it was you Soft Whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © 2006 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au A friend can still feel loved even from afar Friends are sent from God to our heart You are truly a dear angel to me.

There is an inviting entrance to a garden A path for us to go on through Beneath entwining arches Together, me and you There is only loveliness there in As we wander onward, arm in arm Meandering into secret places Delighting, one in heart Sharing only sweetest fragrance Choosing the prettiest bloom Exclaiming aloud the wonder Tucked within each arbor room Til a shady nook, of coolness calls us For a refreshing cup of tea Here in our own friendship garden Of roses, velvet sweet Thankyou for always walking a path of roses with me Soft whispers from Derry's Heart Poems © 2007 heartwhispers@iinet.net.au  Hammonassett Beach, Connecticut 2010 |
