Makes me wonder which Keats poems you are reading, James. Funny how we seem to fear death most when we are younger and less as age makes the prospect closer. Very interesting! Best wishes, Carolyn

Keats had tuberculosis at 24 and died at 25. He definitely was affected by death. His dad was 25 when he was born and died at 35 from tuberculosis.
