This certainly has potential, and I do like the metaphors a lot. Here are two additional things to consider:
1. Metre: think about the number of syllables per line and the significance of your choice of this number; for instance, an even and consistent number of syllables is indicative of idealism and happiness, something I believe this piece embodies. Also, consider the placement of syllables to emphasise certain words: for instance, Shakespeare uses iambic pentameter (lines of ten syllables with every other syllable stressed) to make certain words more prominent.
2: Punctuation: poetry, like prose, is to be read. Because of this, poetry, unless intended to convey a stream of consciousness, should be punctuated. Apart from this feature, punctuation, by controlling a reader's reading flow and establishing relationships between lines and stanzas, helps bring emphasis and contrast into your poetry, meaning that you're able to give another dimension of meaning to your poem.
