"So various, so beautiful, so new,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light"
So, when I was reading this, the first thing I thought was "there is some beautiful imagery here!" The visions of light houses and stars and night were so enticing! However, the more I read, the more disenchanted I got because everything started to go all bitter. The tone feels very nostalgic and morose. I think it is written in a way to make seem beautiful but at the same time unattainable. It's a very interesting poem, though!
also, I added this picture because I want to live there.
