Memory from Malmalice by Johnan Valano (Claude Piron)

MEMORE

Kiel delikate
la luno
desegnas ombron
de branĉetoj junaj
sur mia kurteno
ora

                tiel delikate
                la nuno
                revekas nombron
                da memoroj lumaj
                pri nia kunteno
                kora.

Free translation:  Memory. 

How delicately, the moon draws the shadow of young branches on my 
gold curtain.
That delicately, the present rewakes a number of luminous memories
of our heartly embrace.

"Kora" an adjective on the root for "heart" doesn't have an exact one word equivalent in English that I can think of. Memore is an 
adverb that doesn't have one that I can think of either.
