What do you think this poem is about?

bride of the sky

Sleep, sleep O! Bride of the sky
Thy wakening light from hovering height
Rhyming a carol sweetly recites
that winged my fancies and passion ignite

Go now! Thy lofty looks are gone dry
As my love phrased me bye,
Once she had me closed and Conquer
All my wit and wild wild temper
When I sealed my face in her bosom
Squeezed her charm and fragrant blossom,

O bride of the sky
Come close and listen to my cry
Bring me back in this sweet July
The vanished charms of my Helen of troy.
O! Heavenly symbol of love and purity
You lead a broken love to maturity
Make me whole in love and sincerity.

    By far the best of yours; since i started reading your poetry
    Great visuals a lovely mythological aura is thrown around the feelings and nostalgia like a rich stole, woven with rich imagery and steeped in the air of limmerance (pardon the usage)
    Loved the old age charm imbued by archaic usage to great advantage....


    class poetry....you can be rightly proud of

    This is another rhythmic poem with touching lines and the Allusion on Helen.
    Simply magnificent.
    Bring me back in this sweet July
    The vanished charms of my Helen of troy
