Keats was creative poet and his
most of the poem in real life experience we found that. He creates not his
identity in the poem, but we see that imagination of nature as beautiful in
Keats poem. In his poem we know that life emotions, feelings, fantasy, melody,
sadness, love and death as theme. He
was love to art. Keats has made his mark as a narrative poet, a sonnet, an a
writer of narrative poems of great merit. The poems Keats are flooded with
sensuousness. It is about beauty, not about teaching or persuasion of beauty
but emotions and feelings. John Keats was philosophical and nature poet. His
most of poem in life reality and connected to nature as center. his poem in
animal, birds, nature there life thought out given to images of nature. So now
we explain Keats poem one by one.
· Ode to autumn
‘To Autumn’ was composed at Winchester in September 1819 and published in
the volume of 1820. “How beautiful the season is now; how fine is the air…I
never like stubble the short bits of dried plant stems left in a field after it
has been cut fields so much as now…this struck me so much in my Sunday’s walk
that I composed upon it. we see that autumn as center in the poem. here we see
to imagination and autumn as felling of love and beauty.
“Thee
sitting careless on a granary floor,
Thy hair
soft-lifted by the winnowing wind”
Keats’ Ode To Autumn was loved and
yet patronized as no more than a beautiful description of nature as an almost
flawless piece of writing with nothing to say. It is now judged to be one of
the greatest and richest of Keats’ poems. Autumn’s particular beauty is
dependent upon it transience, humanity and the stanzas can be seen as moving
through the season. as beginning with pre harvest ripeness, moving to the
repletion complete full of harvest itself and concluding with the emptiness
following the harvest but preceding winter.

Ode
to psyche
In ‘Ode to Psyche’ 1819 Keats takes Psyche to be
both a human maiden and the unworshipped goddess of the soul. In the poem,
The
Legend of Psyche is based on Greek
mythology. Keats creates
beautiful girls as god psyche. The
legend of Psyche was told by Apuleius
in ‘The
Golden Asse’. .
Psyche
was one of the most beautiful of the Goddesses of the heaven. She was so beautiful that her beauty excited the jealousy of
Venus, the Goddess of Love and Beauty. Due to this jealousy she decided to make
Psyche behave in a shamefully ridiculous manner. we see that Cupid as god and
heart of victim. but at that time Psyche to fall in love with him in that
dreadful form.
Keats addresses Psyche, the Goddess, and seeks her pardon for exposing
her love secrets. “And pardon
that thy secrets should be sung”.
He saw in a garden Psyche and Cupid lying together clasped in embrace in the
deep forest. Psyche was never assigned any temple though she is prettier than
many other Goddesses in the Greek mythology.
His thoughts and feelings will serve as incense flowers, and other
objects required for worship. Psyche will find a fitting sanctuary in no way
inferior than that of other Gods and Goddesses. So at end that Psyche may enter
the sacred temple to meet her lover Cupid.

Ode
to a nightingale
Keats’s ‘Ode to a Nightingale’
is considered one of the finest odes in English Literature. this poem is best
ode to other odes by Keats. in this poem Keats real life experience and how
sadness came in his personal life. it is express in this poem. Nightingale is a small brown
European bird known especially for the beautiful song of the male bird which is
usually heard during the night. The poem was inspired by the song of a nightingale which the poet heard
in the gardens of his friend Charles Browne. we see that poem of nightingale
moves the poet to the depth of his heart and creates in him a heartache and
numbness as is created by the drinking of hemlock or some opiate. He thinks
that the bird lives in a place of beauty. The poem presents the picture of the
tragedy of human life. It brings out an expression pessimism and dejection of
the poet. He composed this poem at the time when his heart was full of sorrow.
“Darkling I listen; and, for many a time
I have been half in love with easeful Death”
we see that love and
romance how express to Keats’s mind. here we see that the poem presents the
picture of the tragedy of human life.
It gives expression to Keats’s melancholy
and dejection. And this poem was so long and sentence is tragic and melodic of
poet feelings in this poem. In the poem expresses the poet’s love of romance
and his deep sense of delight in nature and his interest in the Greek
Mythology.

Ode
on a Grecian urn
In this poem, ‘Ode on a
Grecian’ Unexpressed the poet’s love of
romance, deep delight in nature and his interest in the Greek mythology. This
poem includes the famous line: “Beauty is truth, truth beauty”. we find the
reference to Flora, Dryad, and Bacchus that are all related to Greek mythology.
John Keats wrote Ode on a Grecian Urn in May 1819. In the poem Ode on a Grecian
Urn has concrete imagery, richness of coloring and the elements of charm and
deep human interest.
He recited the poem when he went for a walk with his
friend Haydon. And how it was Haydon who had introduced John Keats to the Elgin
Marbles. It was Haydon who aroused his interest in Greek sculpture. and here we
see to Keats’s unheard and silence. urn speaks to truth at unheard voice. Urn
as motionless and emotional world we see here. urn has preserves the time for
ages. there are lover flute-player and singing song as unheard way. in the poem
‘urn’ as symbols of beauty but here melody, pain, and sadness, motion of lover,
silence and identity of world. we can see that paradox thought in this poem
line:
“Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard
Are sweeter; therefore ye soft pipes, play on”
Keats finds this
unheard music and the melody of silence. The beauty of Greek Sculptural Art provides the apparent theme. so at end that The Urn states that there is not merely a
close relationship but an actual identity between beauty and truth.
