KEATS & SHAKESPEARE
NEW PORTRAITS DISCOVERED
ACQUISITION BY TURNBULL LIBRARY
There was recently discovered in Auckland a hitherto unknown portrait of the English poet Keats.

"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

“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.

'In drear nighted December' by John Keats

In drear nighted December,

Thy branches ne'er remember
   Their green felicity—
The north cannot undo them
With a sleety whistle through them
Nor frozen thawings glue them
   From budding at the prime.

Good morning. A couple of days ago I posted the Johann Wolfgang von Goethe thought that among other things, every day one should read a good poem. So here's something from John Keats' Endymion for today ....

As F Scott Fitzgerald offered, "For awhile after you quit Keats, all other poetry seems to be only whistling or humming."

“But this is human life: the war, the deeds,
The disappointment, the anxiety,
Imagination’s struggles, far and nigh,
All human; bearing in themselves this good,
That they are still the air, the subtle food,
To make us feel existence, and to show
How quiet death is.” – Keats

Beauty is truth, truth beauty - that is all
Ye know on earth
And all ye need to know

I’m thinking of jumping instances….not sure how that happens but am trying something.

Is formulating the concept of Negative Capability itself an activity of irritable reaching after fact and reason? #Keats
