A Thing of Beauty

Article Review   by:buta     Original Author: John Keats
ª
 
This poem tries to percieve the world through language.The believes that there are certain things which are beautiful and worth to be treasured.He points out the intransient nature of beautiful things.THese things leave a lasting impression on our mind .The pleasure got by them is not momentary.THey are very valuable as they provide peace to human mind.Life is full of tribulations.Loss of  faith and disappointment are the result of our own making.beautiful things make life worthwhile as they lift the veil of gloom, finding way for optimism and hope.

The poet names a few beautiful thing which are simplest of things .These include sun moon trees etc.even things like sheep daffodils ,clear springs ,musk roses growing in the wild are things that give joy and happiness to the human heart.beauties of nature have an elixir of life.It is like a precious gift from heaven.
