Delicate Demure Bleeding Heart

bleeding heart flower
dainty, demure, delicate
heart-shaped, my grandson points out.
he is the artistic child
she graces us with beauty during a short life span
leave her in the ground I tell everyone
like you would leave a heart in a chest.
uprooted, she will not thrive or survive.
