Answer 1

'Twas noontide of summer,
And mid-time of night;
And stars, in their orbits,
Shone pale, thro' the light
Of the brighter, cold moon,
'Mid planets her slaves,
Herself in the Heavens,
Her beam on the waves.
I gazed awhile
On her cold smile;
Too cold- too cold for me-
There pass'd, as a shroud,
A fleecy cloud,
And I turned away to thee,
Proud Evening Star,
In thy glory afar,
And dearer thy beam shall be;
For joy to my heart
Is the proud part
Thou bearest in Heaven at night,
And more I admire
Thy distant fire,
Than that colder, lowly light.

It just talks about the evening star during the summer and how planets are the moon's slave and when the moon whose look and dull color seems cold, and start making him feel cold it makes him look at the evening star which has a warmer distant fire due to its color; is better to stare at than the cold moon.

Answer 2

Imagine Poe outside at midnight on a summer’s night. He looks up at the moon that most people see as romantic and also sees her light reflected in some body water. He watches the moon long enough to see a cloud pass by it. Then his gaze slides away from the moon to the Evening Star. He finds more pleasure in looking at the Evening Star than at the moon and tells the reader that in this poem.
