You have bested me again
Winter … Jack Frost is boy winter…so far it’s fine 
With your cleaver endeavour ….. this is a pointless line just there to rhyme with “winter”. Better without it 

grasping on with your frost-bitten hands… nice line 
Awaken sun and spite the cold…gets confusing at this point, asking the personfied winter to “spite the cold”. Maybe the poem should be addressed to spring 
Warm the day and colourise the flowers
Make them beautiful bright and bold … this is more of a late spring / summer image. Doesn’t fit, particularly when Flora has yet to be awaakened

Run through the trees
Awaken the flora … I read this as “awaken Flora” - the goddess - and it fit better with the personified spring theme. 
Ring spring throughout the land …who is being addressed? Jack Frost doesn’t ring in spring 
Tell Winter their work is done …. It 
Now begone
The world is in my command … who is speaking now?
To those who seek me, I will come … spring comes to everyone. A second meaning is implied but not supported by the rest of the poem 
Find me in the morning due … spelling 
With blooming buds and vibrant hues, I'll paint the world anew … 
Hi - the poem has a few good lines but lacks logical coherence
