This free verse shows great restraint, mixed with delightful nature imagery. I love the combo of the photo and colors, with the dramatic but understated thoughts.
What you're expressing here is oh so true. We need to allow nature time to open her mysteries and wonders.
I suggest a semicolon after the word "tree."
That last line, of course, brings to mind the song "Let It Be," which is one of my personal favorites.
Very well done, with a message that we would be wise to heed.
Thank you, Pili!

I can really relate to this one, Pili. You did a great job of illustrating your point with this poem. Don't change a thing. Well done.

Impatient
my hands tremble
as I caress
the tender bud, - need a comma after impatient.
But the voice
of my heart
tells me,
don' t rush it
just let it be, - need a comma after don't rush it
and a period after let it be.
start a new sentence with:
let nature
do her job,
it will unfold
sharing all splendor
at its own time
at its own pace.
Please just let it be. - need a comma after
unfold and after time.
A wonderful read, Pili. I love the message.
We humans tend to be in such a hurry to
make things happen. We end up tripping
over ourselves.

Great writing, and a timely reminder to me to 'slow down and enjoy'. :-) This poem has a lovely 'feel' about it that goes beyond the written words and background display. thanks for sharing.

A pretty nice poem that seems to set a mood and maintain it until the end. It may need something to tie it together in the end as you mention someone, the you, in the first and second stanza and then go onto the tree and mother nature without ever coming back to the "you" again. Aside from that, a nice read.

don' t rush it
just let it be,
let nature
do her job,
it will unfold
Your poetry speaks in first person
but has such a good bit of advice for the reader.
Thanks for making me think, again!
Always enjoy your work.
Write on!
