Answer 1

Answer:

Keats “The Human Seasons”

Explanation:

This is the poem in which the speaker uses an extended metaphor in order to describe the cycle of people's lives. In this poem, Keats tells us that just like the four seasons of the year, there are four seasons in a life. Spring happens when we are young, and we take in all the beauty of the world easily. Summer occurs when we have youthful thoughts and dreams. Then, in autumn, people are more idle and content, and they are ready to let things go. Winter occurs when we are close to death.

Answer 2

The right answer is: Keats "the human seasons". In this poem, he speaks of the different emotions of a man. He runs through each by stating how we act. For spring, we have lust. For summer, we take in the beauty of spring and become youthful, we dream of our futures. For fall, we are content with ourselves and how things are. For winter, we show our mortality and have misfortunes.
