Unto mine eyes
Unto mine eyes you fill this soul
As it quenches my thirst
For you be onely unto me alone
Your breath upon which I partake
The luster of sweet nectar
Placed unto me fills my cup
For it nary runneth dry
From mine garden I take thee prized rose
Before thee I hand it unto thee
But not to upright thee or glorify
Only that you may kiss these petals
Returning unto me this rose
Of your breath so it may forever live
No longer to wither upon the day
As mine love for thee nary withers
I bid unto thee mine heart
So gentle and benevolent
Thou canst find any other
For it only becomes to thee
That which I freely give
But if I must part from thine presence
Forever I take this eternal love
For which is gladly placed upon thee
Mine love, and life, mine heart
For thee I e’en depart unto death
Mine soul wilst be eternally blissed

All the stanzas were perfectly written with a lovers' gentle touch, Carol. My favorite of the stanzas, however, was the second one, where the rose, after having been kissed forever lives. Ultra perfect is that one on my humble way of thinking.
