milliecorkery's review against another edition
5.0
I just adore his style and imagery, and find his approach to poetry itself absolutely fascinating. There’s not much for me to say other than I found it a beautiful collection.

keats' verse is charged with vitality and youthfulness, pure delight in nature and poesy
fav poems:
- excerpts from Sleep and Poetry
- When I have fears that I may cease to be
- Ode on a Grecian Urn
- Ode to a Nightingale
'Forlorn! the very word is like a bell/To toll me back from thee to my sole self!/Adieu! the fancy cannot cheat so well/As she is famed to do, deceiving elf/Adieu! adieu! thy plaintive anthem fades/Past the near meadows, over the still stream/Up the hill-side; and now 'tis buried deep/In the next valley-glades:/Was it a vision, or a waking dream?/Fled is that music - Do I wake or sleep?'
- Bright star! Would I were steadfast as thou art
