My Inner Garden Please Click Link above to hear music and my voice recording. Music: Cliffs of Doneen by Howard Baer From the album entitled: Celtic Mystique  Artist: Carl Schweninger My Inner Garden by Linda L. Dowd Tiptoe, ever so softly, thru’ the garden in my heart. Crush not my budding dreams that they might blossom and grow. Step gently, my love. Bruise not the delicate petals of this flowering soul. Plant fertile seeds of kindness within the walls of my inner sanctum. Shower them with sweet words of love and shine your golden rays of sun upon the fragile flowers growing therein. Sprinkle them with acts of kindness and behold the beauty that abounds. Tend this garden, deep in the soul of me, with tender loving ways, so that I might touch blue skies and fly free among the stars. These rich and vibrant flowers, that dwell within the garden of my love, will be forever there for your plucking ~ and consummate loving pleasure... Nurture them with the essence of you, and let not the weeds of deception choke and bind the inner garden of one who loves you so. There be no force on Earth that exceeds that of the power of love. ~ Linda L. Dowd ~ |

Well, I bet, my dear beautiful Linda Angelo Terrestre, that your inner garden is a place of pure beauty and divine scents! This is very enticing, the magical EA touch never fails to reach out and touch my heart. I think none of your admirers remains indifferent when you speak of love  Love you and send big hugs.

Maga Margherita ~ You've done it again! You've touched my heart with your warm, effusive words. A poem is just a poem ~ until you have left some of your magic in a reply to it! Love you! Angelo Terrestre xo |

Linda - Such a romantic you are and how lovely it is that you are because you bless us with such a delicate knowing of love. I reckon I know about the weeds! Hugs Helen |

Okay that's it, I've got to get a garden! Why do I get the feeling that this has nothing to do with plowing hardened tools into mother earth... Hmmm...or does it? Now i'm confused lol. Dear Linda, this was just so... ! ... Yeah, that's what it was. Beeeutifuuuuul! Oomh! Rich (whew!) |

Beautiful, Linda. If these words formed the wedding vows of each partner in every wedding, there would be no divorces. - Owl |

You've an old soul, yourself, m'friend. The highlights of this poem are truly those of Keats, and his kind. Beautiful, in all ways! |

Sunshiny One ~ I think that good King Wenceslos was a merry old soul, as well! lol I love it when a poem such as this, seemingly writes itself! ~ or perhaps with the guidance of some unknown hand from the distant past! lol Love and Sun Light, Linda |
