The poet says, “Beauty is heard in…”

Can you hear beauty? Add a sound that you think is beautiful to the sounds the poet thinks are beautiful.


The poet, Keats, said:


Heard melodies are sweet.


But those unheard are sweeter.


What do you think this means? Have you ever ‘heard’ a song in your head, long after the song was sung or played?

The beauty of nature and its constituents can not only be seen through the human eye but at the same time can also be felt and heard.

The melodious voices of the birds chirping all around are also a part of the sounds that the poet thinks are beautiful.


According to the poet, Keats, the heard melodies are soothing to hear, however, the unheard are much sweeter because of the lasting effect that they have on an individual’s mind.


Yes, we often ‘hear’ a song deep inside our mind even after it has finished because of the long lasting effect of the music and its beats.
