I must congratulate you on such a lovely poem. 
The three stanzas are clearly divided i.e. past, present and
future. I particularly like the second stanza very much especially
the last four lines
[b]Because petals fall, and stems rot,
and buds do not give birth.
All my praying come to naught,
my tears, are they of worth?
Just a suggestion what if you rewrite it as
Petals will fall and stems will rot,
and buds do not give birth.
All my prayers come to naught,
my tears, are they of worth?
Only my two cents.

Hmm..Personally, I would just change the third line to "All my
prayers come to naught," but then again it wouldn't harm just to
rephrase a bit. Yeah, your suggestion isn't a bad idea.
