I stood in the middle of a rose garden I watched nature map out its own pattern I quietly listened out for the budding And heard the sound of a bee buzzing I stood in the middle of a rose garden I saw withering evened out by blossom I sought after a floating flutter I sought after the wings of a flower What could be missing in this scenicbotany? Aroma and beauty is not the onlyexpectancy It feels like a beauty palour withouthairdressers It feels like a sweet flavor withouttaste-testers The greeter of the flower buds The day watch of rosariums The symbol of a warm welcome Is in the romance of a butterfly Daylight misses their soundless claps Daylight misses their flight We clipped their colorful flaps When we killed all the butterflies

Perhaps reflect on the "I" lines. It reads very much like "I did this", "I did that" which really loses focus.
Stood in the middle of a rose garden I watched nature map out its own pattern Quietly listened for the buzzing
Also I really like the imagery and pace until I get to the joined words. I dont know why these are joined and it doesn't affect pace. It really throws me off and makes it hard to enjoy the themes you've laid down.
I like the rhyming and I like that you've mixed in half rhymes too. I really like half rhymes.
Hope this helps. edited by Devotchka on 7/14/2019
