Beautiful language, uplifting message. This would be a delightful poem to hear. There's an abundance soft sounding consonants in the first stanza which to my mind set a soft mood. The first 3 lines of the second stanza turn the narrative and, I think, the reader's attention, with harsher sounding consonants before "they whispered through the heart to me" and the concluding stanza.

This is all so subliminal. I don't know to what extent it was intuitive or deliberate on your part, but the way you combined sound with structure made it more than "just another flower poem" for me.

I also liked the inverted pairing of "promise born." Perhaps for that reason, I'm not convinced "your soul abounds" was necessary.

Delightful poem, SpringBreezes, just delightful.
