Yon moon flies high this fine summer’s eve
Time I deem for this spell to conceive
Her heart shall beat; lungs draw breath once more
Cold hand shall warm as I brave death's door

From lover's moon I gather luminescent light
Stars I steal so that her eyes shall be ever bright
A field of roses shall provide the scent for her hair
Mother Nature to make her skin soft beyond compare

Two intertwined rose vines to signify husband and wife
In the soft light of dawn I steal beauty to give her life
The cool north wind shall give her everlasting breath
Soft slanting rays from the sun to wake her from death

And last of all I place in her heart a small twinkling glow
That thing from my own heart that some call a soul

sorry about the title...just can't make up my mind...

Wow nice poem.  Had I read that out of a textbook I would have assumed it to be 14th-15th century.  I like the usage of words and the imagery you gave.  A very beautiful poem
