Ode to Autumn - Poem - by John Keats - Notes - SUMMARY

Ode to Autumn
-John Keats
          ‘Ode to Autumn’ was written by John Keats. In this poem, the poet celebrates the special qualities of the season Autumn.

          Keats describes Autumn as a season of mists and fruitfulness.  He calls it a close friend of the Sun. The Sun and Autumn plan together to provide more fruits, flowers and ripeness. The honey is still available to the bees.

          Keats personified Autumn in different moods.  Autumn is shown as a harvester carelessly sitting on a granary floor. Autumn appears like a person sleeping in the field. Autumn is seen as a gleaner carrying heavy load of grains.  Finally, the season is shown as a person standing patiently by the side of a Cider press.

          Keats describes the musical characteristics of Autumn season.  In the evenings, the Sunrays touch the fields and add rosy colour.  The small gnats mourn in a sorrowful voice.  The full grown lambs bleat loudly.  The hedge-crickets sing songs.  The Robin whistles in a soft voice. The gathering swallows produce twittering sound.
