  1. La Belle Dame sans Merci by Sir Francis Bernard Dicksee isn’t just a painting—it’s a story of love, beauty, and betrayal told in color and detail.

    I’ve written a personal reflection on why this work still resonates today. If you’ve ever been enchanted (or undone) by beauty, this one’s for you.

  2. “This Sonnet I have written in a strange mood, half asleep. I know not how it is, the Clouds, the sky, the Houses, all seem anti Grecian & anti Charlemagnish—”

  3. Any scene that has a wide range of colour is attractive. Nature supplies the best colours. This scene near us is one of excitement as well as calm and peace. It is also a reminder of time passing and the transitory nature of our existence. It is a thing of beauty.

    "A thing of beauty is a joy for ever." The opening line of a poem by John Keats that says whether beauty appears in a sunset or in a poem, it offers humanity indestructible consolation, healing, and courage.

  4. Thou wast not
    born for death,
    immortal Bird!
    No hungry generations
    tread thee down;
    The voice I hear
    this passing night
    was heard
    In ancient days
    by emperor and clown:
    Perhaps the self-same song
    that found a path
    Through the sad heart
    of Ruth,
    when, sick for home,
    She stood in tears
    amid the alien corn;
    The same that
    oft-times hath
    Charm’d magic casements,
    opening on the foam
    Of perilous seas,
    in faery lands forlorn.

    In meditative contemplation, Keats finds in all the sweet songs of joy that he seeks. For him, his poetry is his life, his meaning: his very being. Take it away, and he loses touch with the very inspiration, the very life essence, that is at the core of his being.

  8. My novel "The Fine Point of His Soul" follows John #Keats to Rome - where he, Mary #Shelley and Lord #Byron work against a villain who dubs himself Iago. Where will this #althistfic lead our beloved Romantic hero?

  9. And a little bit more this time with a bend in the river to curve the eye.

  10. "Man should not dispute or assert but whisper results to his neighbour and thus by every germ of spirit sucking the sap from mould ethereal every human might become great, and Humanity instead of being a wide heath of Furze and Briars with here and there a remote Oak or Pine, would become a grand democracy of Forest Trees!" #Keats ?#fediverse

  11. “Shed no tear
    O, shed no tear!
    The flower will bloom another year.
    Weep no more
    O, weep no more!
    Young buds sleep in the root’s white core.” - from Fairy’s Song (Shed No Tear!) by John Keats.

    John Keats, ‘O thou whose face hath felt the winter’s wind’ #poetry #Keats #literature

  13. As was clear from my limited experiments with #ChatGPT’s #sonnet and rap, the renderings did not rise to the heights of a #Keats, Shelley or Christina Rossetti. ChatGPT will probably never be a Terrance Hayes, reinvigorating the classic form of poetry to write American Sonnets for My Past and Future Assassin. But it will versify in tolerable fashion. In terms of rap, ChatGPT may never be an Eminem or a Jay-Z but it will probably always be good enough.
    That presents a massive problem. The business of content cares about the balance sheet and dang, #AI is just so much cheaper than #creative human beings. rashmee.com/2023/01/11/chatgpt

  14. Just hanging out with #poet John #Keats in #Chichester. In a house near to this spot he started to write his #poem 'The Eve of St Agnes'. #poetry

  15. Do you prefer to expect the unexpected in historical fiction? In this alternate tale, #Keats wasn't expecting to fight Dionysius in #Rome!
