I peek in her room
to see the vibrant color
of her newborn bloom

The nice glow on the petals helps to emphasize the center. I think you could lighten up or boost the contrast on the center of the flower so it will stand out even more.

Love your poem-very nice concentrated focus on the glowing center, and lovely soft petals.

The colours, composition and glow all contribute to the uplifting feeling when I look at this.  Your choice of placement of the heart and upper petals give the impression of the rising sun and I love that.     :)
