Clerihew Keats

John Keats qualified as a surgeon apothecary
before concocting his poetry
He also wrote ballads & odes
but sonnets were his  favourite mode

Dear Friend Brian, I want you to know how much I appreciate your daily Clerihews. Poets, sculptors, and other creative types can benefit tremendously from the information that can be gleaned from this source. Simply by attempting to delve into their history and their poetry just a little bit further, we are able to access a deep pool of wisdom. Keats, who passed away at the age of 25 from illness, accomplished in his life in a very short amount of time beautiful things that had a significant influence on the course of history. I am grateful that you have shared this profound insight.
