Yet motionless calm -- This line seems to serve only to conflict with itself, because when is love ever motionlessly calm? It seems to fight the theme a little bit. The structure fits with it, but perhaps with a bit of thinking you can see something that works better.

I am the petals of the blossom
And winter’s kiss to spring

I am a carefree child's perception
I see wonder in everything -- love these four lines

I am a waking moment of clarity
In a barren dreamless night -- when does waking occur on a dream less night? Just a thought

I am faith beyond religion
Not an ideal of wrong or right

I am blind to race and creed
And need to make this clear

I am not here to discuss this -- this part threw me off. What exactly are you here to discuss? And what are you not here to discuss really? It seems out of place and (for me) it throws off the mood of the poem at a crucial point.
You will lose

Because I am love
And I am sent me maybe its that I don't understand your phrasing but it seems like you could conjure up a better line. I like the clarification of love though, it ties the nearly unrelatable events together with a common theme that the reader can now understand.
It's a good idea for a poem, and at certain points I really enjoyed it. There are just a few things that muddle it up.

keep up the good work Smile[/b]
