I would call this neo-Georgian in tone and language. One of my teachers once said, "The adjective is the enemy of the noun"--an exaggeration perhaps but worth thinking about. The previous comment underscores many of these. The imagery verges on beautiful without our being told it's beautiful. Trimming it to tetrameter might help. Marvell.
