Stillness
This has many clear ideas and expressive lines. Would you consider paring off some words that, IMO, your intent doesn't really need?
'delicate dawn', 'gentle misty breeze' are expressions very over-used, which doesn't make them wrong, but avoidable if possible.
Just keep writing, with a thesaurus at your elbow. Mine is dog-eared and scrungy with usage.
Isn't the photo upside-down? Never mind; it's very eye-catching.
I have a poem in French. Perhaps I'll post it and you can enjoy having a go at me.

Marie-Anne,
Those first five lines would make a good poem on their own.
