Your resto spec is fine.
I would recommend
this spec with glyphs for Balance, note that MF, Starfire, Starfall, and IS glyphs are the best DPS glyphs.
Dreamstate and Intensity, depending on your itemisation, can be better in certain situations.... but I'd have to see an armory link or see stats before I can tell you which is better for you. You don't need both however.
Furor = really good for Balance. 10% of your total INT? Means it scales with BoK, AI, MotW, etc. Plus, more mana = less chance of going OOM, and much better than NF and Sub.
CF is better than IIS because it's a static 3% haste that has a 100% uptime, whereas IIS is dependent on if you have IS/MF on the target. Chances are likely that you don't have IS/MF on for the entire eclipse, because the eclipse = greater DPS than DoTs, so you wouldn't reapply until after. Mostly boils down to PP though.
Nature's Reach is useful because 15% less aggro = less chance of aggroing from boss, especially if the tank is new.
You don't need 9% mana cost reduction, so 2 of those three points is best relegated to Imp MF, though that's not as effective with the glyph. So I would call it PP too.
Imp FF is good, less need for itemisation of hit. Plus with the buff to make it last 5 minutes (the length of most boss fights) it's an apply and forget. 3% to hit for the entire raid and 3% personal crit chance? Better than IIS imo.
That's it.

Ok take a look at the
Druid FAQ that we have posted at the top of the Druid forums. Specifically the Balance section.
In there is listed all the information you will need for a starting boomkin.
That being said... I personally suggest
this build here to start you off. It gives you a taste of everything the boomkin talent tree has to offer and you can make adjustments to your spec at will using the FAQ info as a guide. There is no "best spec" due to the amount of useful talents we have but there are "better specs" then others depending on where you are gearwise/progression and what you want to do.
glyphs for Balance, note that MF, Starfire, Starfall, and IS glyphs are the best DPS glyphs.
The best DPS you can get from major glyphs is StarFIRE, Moonfire, and Inscet Swarm only. The changes recently made to starfall still can't keep up with the IS glyph especially since IS got a buff along side Starfall.
