Relation In Favor Of Books The Complete Poems
It is said that the poem "To Autumn" marks the end of poetic career of Keats.He died at 25, writing poetry for only about 5 odd years.
But I think he wrote enough, to exist in the hearts of poetry lovers world wide, forever.
A collection of wonderfully composed, natural, sensual and emotional imagery of ...A romantic poet !
Lines from Final stanza of "To Autumn".....
Where are the songs of Spring? Ay, where are they?
Think not of them, thou hast thy music too,–
While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day,
And touch the stubble-plains with rosy hue
"if poetry comes not as naturally as the Leaves to a tree it had better not come at all"- John Keats

What a beautiful poet and beautiful man - he died too soon. I love the poetry, the letters, all of it. Found it on Google for free (pubilc domain!) in e-book form, sought it out after watching the movie Bright Star, about his love affair with Fanny Brawne. I recommend that as well.
Every morning I would wake at 7am just to read this work of genius.Keats was the Romantic poet who cared most about art and beauty. He didn't allow himself to get mixed up in religion and politics.

Above all, he was supremely conscious of beauty in the world, as well as the world's suffering. His 143page poem 'Endymion: A Poetic Romance'
Oh what can ail thee, knight-at-arms, Alone and palely loitering?The sedge has withered from the lake, And no birds sing.Oh what can ail thee, knight-at-arms, So haggard and so woe-begone?The squirrel's granary is full, And the harvest's done.I see a lily on thy brow, With anguish moist and fever-dew,And on thy cheeks a fading rose Fast withereth too.I met a lady in the meads, Full beautiful - a faery's child,Her hair was long, her foot was light, And her eyes were wild.I made a garland for her
