Bright Star! would I were stedfast as thou art--
Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night,
And watching, with eternal lids apart,
Like nature's patient, sleepless Eremite,
The moving waters at their priestlike task
Of pure ablution round earth's human shores,
Or gazing on the new soft-fallen masque
Of snow upon the mountains and the moors--
No--yet still stedfast, still unchangeable,
Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast,
To feel for ever its soft swell and fall,
Awake for ever in a sweet unrest,
Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath,
And so live ever--or else swoon to death.

John Keats.

#DailyStream: the muse’s tale... from her own perspective. Jane Campion’s lovely 2009 #BrightStar lavishes its attention on Fanny Brawne (Abbie Cornish), who inspired one or other of those early-19th-century poets. On @primevideouk UK, but, criminally, streaming nowhere in the US
