Image result for bleeding heart vine on bower

When I was young my heart bloomed like a flower Love's guileless petals spread to climb life's bower Oh, if withered vines could still but climb, I'd then Bring forth one more blossom to remember ... when. ~ 1st Place ~ in the "When And Then" Poetry Contest, Jenish Somadas, Judge & Sponsor.
