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

In the poem the lines “Executive in search of something new—Perhaps bisexual woman‚ arty‚ young‚ Do you live North London? Is it you?” (7-9) informed me that this guy is so desperate to find somebody that he would settle with pretty much anyone that came along. I believe that no
