earth will never die or end.He describes the
nature as the hot sun,cooling trees,and hedge to

grasshopper comes out to sing in summer
under a pleasant weed.Then he repeats again
that the poetry of earth will never stop.In a cold
winter at evening comes out the cricket to take
the lead in winter.He begins to sing near the
stove.Keats wanted to tell us that the cycle of
earth will never end it will keep completing
each other(the summer and winter)
