Keats wrote this poem after his beloved brother George left England for America in 1818. The sonnet uses fantastical imagery of nature which Keats then undermines in the last couplet by implying that they mean little without George there with him to appreciate them. During this time Keats contracted tuberculosis and he died at the age of 25. George went on to outlive his brother for another 20 years and his eight children now have hundreds of descendents in the US.
