I also wondered how the poem would sound if she chose to praise the evening using details of an urban setting. You could easily use urban setting details as well as using rural setting details

    To Celia is a love poem with a simple four line rhyme scheme (abcbabcb)‚ written in first person. The over all tone of the poem is dreamy‚ optimistic‚ persistent‚ and gullibly innocent. The rhythm is smooth‚ and pensive‚ and seems to fall into an iambic pentameter. The poem gives the reader an intimate sense of this man’s love‚ and obsession for the woman of his desire‚ Celia. I interpreted this poem as having a theme of lost love. I imagined that Celia is his ex-lover‚ he still is in love with her
