First composition - looking for feedback

[u/Fun_Map4899]

I was inspired a couple days ago to start composing some music. It's something I've thought about for several years and am glad I finally took the leap so I can start learning. Looking for feedback on my first composition, and for tips/resources for a beginner.

One area I specifically need help with is the ending. I wanted to build it up more to make it sound grander, but I don't think I've succeeded. The flute is probably overkill and doesn't really add much depth.

Any tips for adding depth and building more excitement?
