One morning at the break of dawn
As filtered sun beams touched the lawn
A single whiff of fragrant breeze
Brought silent peace beneath the trees

Then reaching down, the golden sun
Unfolded petals one by one
And in its sweet simplicity
A rose looked up and smiled at me

Such gorgeous surroundings for your poem, the filtered light is the perfect backdrop.

There's so much to like!!!!

Yo dear Elizabeth,

I like your use of end rhymes in this very nice poem.

Love Bobby
